Hello @fracz,

 

Thank you for visiting the HP Forums! The Forums are a great place where you can find solutions for your issues, with help from the community!

 

I understand that you are having an issue with the SSD, and wanted to assist you!  I see that you tried to clean install the Operating System.

 

Did you select to boot from the Optical Drive in the BIOS boot settings?  Also, try reviewing the following resources for additional information:

Enter the BIOS after pressing the power button by pressing the F10 key.

 

In the BIOS you can configure the boot option to make the SSD the first item on the list.

 

This way you won't have to press F9 every time you start up to boot to the SSD.
