    PC Not Booting - Suddenly Stops Recognising Disk...


    Upgraded pc from a 240GB SSD to a 500GB SSD. Windows worked fine, but is now not boooting anymore. None of the startup repair operations work, and instead fail after a few seconds. Also tried using repair functions via booting from an installation USB. Not sure where to go from here apart from reinstalling windows. which i really don't want to do because i have already downladed programs etc...

    Disk stopped suddenly

    Hello everyone,

    I have a disk 2.5" sata of the 250GB. It's a weird comportment. It's has a 120 GB and I was transfer almost 40 gb when the disk stops and dismount (I use Linux). Ok! I formatted and try copy 180 GB from my computer to disk which connect via adapter usbToSata. Almost 120 GB the disk stopped, again! This is very weird because the disk has a little use and shows no visible damage.

    Which diagnostics can I do to repair or found the problem in the disk?

    PC suddenly stopped booting Win 7 [SOLVED]

    Well your boot record is damaged or the drive. You need to boot to your system disk and repair.

    Try F8 on start up

    So this is a OEM PC?
