" rel="nofollow - Hello
I have a AsRock 370 Killer SLI with a Samsung 960 Evo as primary SSD and a WD as a storage device.
I tried installing Win 7 64 bit and failed, I checked for solutions on google and there are some alternatives but the ones I tried didn't work for me. e.g. download AsRock software for adding the SSD drivers to the bootable USB, etc. I'll probably try to swap the HDD with a Crucial SSD and install the OS there, then clone it to the Evo.
The OS installation actually worked once but upon rebooting it gave me the BSOD each time I'd try to boot the OS from Evo SSD?!?!
What is the best option, please? I've searched for this answer for a while and perhaps the best answer will come from here?

Thank you :)
