Lenovo Ideapad Z585 & Win 7 Home Premium 64bit SSD issue
Hello all,
Pardon my weak grammar & spelling as English is not my mother tongue.
4-5 days ago I try to upgrade my Lenovo Ideapad Z585 with 120 gig SSD but much to my dismay, Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit did not install successfully, something about "unable to install" ( I typing this from memory, sorry).
At first, the technician suspected the Intel SSD 120 gig is not compatible with AMD chipset in my Lenovo so I change to Corsair 128 gig but error is still the same during clean installation. AHCI is enabled in BIOS too.
But it remains a frustrating mystery for me.
Can anyone in the forum shed some light on this?
Thank you for your time & attention.
