Ok Thankyou. 
Just to confirm, I keep the old hard drive in to download windows 10 to the usb drive, then swap the hard drive for the SSD, then follow the procedure as shown in one of the previous messages you’ve sent me?

Anytime.

 

Glad to have been of assistance.

 

Since it doesn't sound like you tried to install an OS on the blank hard drive, it am very confident it will work.
