Hi guys. I recently wanted to upgrade my Laptop to and SSD and switch it with an HDD that came with the laptop. The reason for this is because it takes me +30 minutes to start windows on that HDD and after a lot of research on how to make my laptop boot faster I came to the conclusion that that may be the best option. 

However during this I have ran into another problem. I have downloaded windows 10 on my usb to install it into the SSD. No matter if I try to install windows 10 on the SSD or another HDD (I tried) from that laptop it would go static on the screen. I tried to install windows 10 using the same method on a different laptop (older hp) and everything worked fine. I tried to research this issue as well but at this point I am almost ready to give up. Please help it’s really on my nerves now.
