Boot Problem With Only One Harddrive
So I had a Harddrive with Windows 8 installed, but it ended up becoming unresponsive, and pretty much broken I could no longer log in to it, so I bought Windows 7, and it worked fine, however, I could not install it to the HDD with Windows 8 on it, only my old one, which is only 75 GB. I really want to get my memory back, but whenever i try booting with the other drive in so I can format it, it just hangs at the Starting Windows screen.
If I start in safe mode, it says it hangs on classpnp.sys. I really don't want to lose a TB HDD and need to buy a new one, but I cannot find out how to wipe it from BIOS or anything. Help please.
