" rel="nofollow - Hey everyone... New to the forum and to the Ryzen platform. Just finished a new build of a Ryzen 1700 on a Taichi x370 board, 16bg qualified GSkill ram 3200. I've got a 240gb SSD from my old machine that was my C drive. I've installed a new Samsung 960 EVO NVMe SSD on the Tiachi to use as my C drive. I cloned my original SSD to the EVO (I know, not recommended, but I wanted to see if it would work). Backup worked correctly and the clone looks good. I try to set the NVMe as the first boot drive, but when I do, the machine starts to boot for a few seconds, then restarts. It does this maybe 2 or 3 times, then boots up with the original SSD drive as the boot drive!?! How do I get the machine to recognize the NVMe drive as the system boot drive? Thanks for your help! ------------- G. Casper |

disconnect your old ssd use windows usb/cd to repair boot files if windows repair will tell if that it is inpossible to do, then either u will need to do it manually or reinstall windows |

" rel="nofollow - did you use the included samsung clone software ? if so then this may point to the issue,,,,,, its quite frankly useless ! a quick google search reveals many other softwares to choose over it to be honest though the far better option is to just install a fresh install direct to the nvme you can use your old drive to then tranfer files over and still be able to use your old windows coa/account ------------- [url=https://valid.x86.fr/jpg250]  [/url]3800X, powercolor reddevil vega64, gskill tridentz3866, taichix370, evga750watt gold |

No, I use a product called Casper. It's an excellent backup/image/cloning program. ------------- G. Casper |

" rel="nofollow - gcasper, it has been years since I used cloning SW (XP). Doesn't Casper set the environment to allow booting of the end result of the clone? I would think it would create the proper settings and take care of making sure the proper boot files are in the proper locations. Are you trying to do a legacy or UEFI boot? What is the state of CSM? All this suggest you should consider contacting Casper technical support. Perhaps Ryzen/TR support needs some attention. Enjoy, John.

UPDATE: Disconnected my SSD, let the NVME boot once, now all is well. My system is booting from the NVME with no problems. Thanks everyone! ------------- G. Casper |
