Windows 10: swapping between windows 7 and 10 causes clean up error

Hello,I recently bought a card that allows me to install an m.2 ssd. The reason for this is that I still use windows 7 and want to be able to "trust" windows 10 with my data disks.So, when I want to swap disks, I disconnect my sata data drives swap my windows 7 to windows 10 boot and that works.I created this post because I once did the swap without disconnecting the data drives and found myself having to reload data drives even though both windows versions use NTFS.Windows does this but using Linux OS does not. Using the m.2 ssd, I now find that the same problem occurs and has even corrupte

Is it time for Windows 10 already?

Here's a good step by step guide on doing a fresh install.

Windows 7 Professional keeps dropping the DVD/CD drive

Working with a fresh install (2nd attempt) of Windows 7 Professional on new hardware. The motherboard is a Gigabyte EP45-UD3P. Running 4G of RAM and an Intel Q9400 Quad Core CPU. The DVD/CD optical drive is a Pioneer DVR-218L.

Here's the problem - after two fresh installs, Windows 7 drops the DVD/CD drive and I get the following error in Device Manager (The device cannot start {code 10}). After the install, the drive works for a period of time, then stops working and I get the error code.

The driver appears to be a standard Windows driver (CD-ROM driver).

I've tried uninstalling the drive and re-installing it in Device Manager but it does not work - I continue to get the device error.

I've also swapped out the DVD/CD drive to insure it's not a bad unit. Same problem with both drives.

What do you suggest for next steps?? Could it be an issue with the motherboard?? A driver problem?

I visited the Pioneer web site - could not find any help or additional Windows 7 drivers.

What now??

Maybe some other software/malware is causing the problem? Check. And I suggest do a clean install from a good installation media(don't know if you have genuine Windows or not).
