My system: HP Envy 700-074
Intel i5
MSI motherboard MS-7826 Kaili
Windows 8.1
The only thing I've added from stock is a cheap 2 GB Nvidia graphics card, and I recently swapped the two sticks of RAM for two sticks a new RAM, same specs. ( I went from 1 stick of 8 gb and 1 stick of 4 to 2 sticks of 8 GB)
So today, I was going to add an SSD to my system and try and boot from a CD to install Windows 10
Steps. Unplugged the power, let the anti-surge power supply run out. Plug in my SATA 3 cable as an addition, plug in the SSD. Plug back in the power, turn on, and when it went to boot up it just gets stuck on a black screen with the HP logo. I've tried unplugging the SATA 3 cable, but to no avail.
Any ideas? Best theory I've heard yet is that maybe the power supply is overdrawn, but I would have thought unplugging the SSD would have solved that.
