Hi,..
Total noob here. I've just put together a PC for the first time. I managed to load Windows 10 (I think), on a clean new SSD using the Retail version that came on a USB Flash Drive.
I placed the USB Flash Drive into the PC and I thought I managed to get Windows installing on my SSD. The installation only got so far - meaning that it suddenly stopped. Then the Gigabyte splash screen came on. I waited but nothing happened. So I don't know if Windows finished installing on my SSD or not.
Either way, I can't seem to boot from my SSD. In BIOS for Boot options I see the following.
1),..SATA PS Crucial CT500MX200SS
2),..Windows Boot Manager (P2: Crucial_CT500MX200SS_D1)
My Gigabyte Z97X Gaming G1 shows code A6 on the mobo.
In the meantime, I've taken the USB with Windows on it out of the USB socket. There are no other drives connected - only the SSD.
What do I do now please?
