Is the SSD connected using the same cable and motherboard port as the HDD<br>
used? It's not likely to be the reason, but trying a different cable and<br>
port may be useful if you are not doing that already. If changing those<br>
helps, then the problem was the connection and not the disk.<br>

5.83 thanks to help from users here on list. The disk is turning bad and<br>
the system boots but when I try to run a program it freezes. I removed the<br>
hard drive and installed an SSD and I get lots of errors and am unable to<br>
get it working. I have some screenshots if needed. Ssd is a kingston 480<br>
GB . Any pointers and advice are appreciated.<br>
<br>
I switched cables but errors still occur.<br>
<br>
I guess I have to use a regular 7200 sata disk, but I am stubborn and want<br>
to use a ssd. Thank you for advice and suggestions<br>
<br>
Best Regards<br>
<br>
Antonio<br>
