Вітаю) підкажіть, маю ноутбук hp, при спробі установки системи не ініціалізується(синій екран відновлення) в uefi жорсткий диск (ssd поставив точно робочий) ініціалізацію проходить, все ок, може щось підкажете як вилікувати?

@Melkiy,

The fact that the SSD is visible in the UEFI settings is a good sign, but it only confirms that the motherboard can detect the drive. It does not necessarily mean that Windows can initialize or boot from it.

A few things could cause the blue recovery screen during OS installation:

1. Confirm the exact error message/code

   The blue recovery screen usually provides a stop code (for example: INACCESSIBLE_BOOT_DEVICE, 0xc000000f, etc.). Please provide the exact message because it will help identify the cause.

2. Check the BIOS storage settings

   Enter BIOS Setup (usually by pressing F10 during startup) and check:

   • Boot mode: UEFI (recommended for Windows 10/11)
   • Secure Boot: enabled or disabled can both work, depending on the installation media
   • Storage controller mode: if there is an option for AHCI versus RAID/Intel VMD, the setting must match what Windows expects.

   Many newer HP laptops use Intel VMD/RAID mode, and Windows Setup may require the Intel Rapid Storage Technology (RST) driver to see or properly initialize the SSD.

3. Try reinstalling Windows cleanly

   If you have already attempted an installation:

   • Boot from a freshly created Windows installation USB using Microsoft's Media Creation Tool.
   • At the drive selection screen, delete all existing partitions on the SSD (after confirming there is no important data).
   • Allow Windows Setup to recreate the required GPT/UEFI partitions automatically.

4. Check the SSD health and compatibility

   Even if the SSD works in another computer, verify:

   • Is it an NVMe M.2 SSD or a SATA SSD?
   • Is it the original HP drive or a replacement?
   • Is the laptop model compatible with that SSD type?

5. Run HP diagnostics

   Press Esc during startup, then select F2 HP PC Hardware Diagnostics and run the storage test. This can sometimes detect issues that are not obvious in BIOS.

Could you provide:

• The exact HP laptop model (for example: EliteBook 840 G8, Pavilion 15, etc.)
• The Windows version you are installing (Windows 10 or 11)
• The exact blue recovery screen message/error code
• The SSD model (for example Samsung 990 Pro, WD Black SN770, etc.)

With those details, I can narrow down whether this is a driver, BIOS configuration, or SSD compatibility issue.
