hp 15-bs192od laptop
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I installed new crucial m.2 nvme 500gb ssd to my  15-bs192od laptop. After installing ssd i started laptop... Laptop was not booting up and smells like burning plastic. Immediate i shut down and checked sticker on ssd was melted.

I removed SSD and started only with existing HDD and booting up normally. Ssd socket on board also smell burnt. No visible damage on board.

 

Please help! Should i try again installing ssd? Will i damage my laptop?

An M.2 sata ssd should work-as long as you didn't damage the port.

Not really sure how you will test for damage to the NVME other than install it into a laptop that supports it. Or buy a NVME to USB adapter and plug it into usb port to check it.

I have brought your issue to the attention of an appropriate team within HP. They will likely request information from you in order to look up your case details or product serial number. Please look for a private message from an identified HP contact. Additionally, keep in mind not to publicly post personal information (serial numbers and case details).

If you are unfamiliar with how the Support Community's private message capability works, you can learn about that here.

Your laptop has an M.2 SATA-3 slot. No support for NVME SSD. Check the Maintenance and Service Guide:

Thanks @CherylG. After reading your answer i observed M2X3 is written on board beside socket.

 

One more question, If i install m.2 sata ssd will it work?  And how can i check if my nvme ssd is not damaged?
