    HDD refuses to accept windows


    Hi,So I have a serious issue. I have 2 discs in my laptop. 1 is a ssd and the other a hdd. I've used the hdd for like 3 years now and wanted to switch to an ssd. I did. But there was sth suspicious about it. It always on startup started, shut down, and started up properly. I had a previous version of windows there. The only thing I could think of was that it always first tried to boot from the hdd even though I kinda set it to the ssd. In the bios the ssd didn't show up as a bootable device. Anyway, I decided to try to delete windows from the disc. I used the media installation tool for it. I

    Windows 10 upgrade problem, no input accepted

    I really hate having to come here and ask for help, but I really am stumped. It hurts my geek pride. I have a PC with fairly modern hardware in it. It has a p8p67 pro in it. I have tried upgrading windows 10 on it twice now. Both times I have had the same result.

    After windows finishes upgrading it goes to the log in/set up screen. I can't do anything. No keyboard or mouse input is accepted.

    I will list some, or hopefully all, of the troubleshooting steps I have tried:
    • Move keyboard and mouse to different USB ports.
    • Try different keyboard or mouse.
    • Restart computer, repeatedly.
    • Google for related issues.
    • Update Bios, because why not.
    • Create boot media and revert to windows 7.
    The windows 10 system restore boot media works fine with keyboard and mouse. All USB ports work in windows 7. I don't know what is wrong. I suspect that windows 10 is lacking a driver of some sort, but since the computer accepts no input I have no way of checking for which driver let alone installing it.

    Please help me figure this out. If I have to revert back to windows 7 again, I am not going to get it upgraded to windows 10. Thank you in advanced.

    Hi Johan,

    It is possible that your

    • Shutdown

      PC.

    • Unhooked
      the
      HDD
      and
      turn on
      your
      PC.

    • Reconnect
      your
      HDD
      and
      restart
      your

    If the issue persists, we suggest that you contact your
