    so had a motorcycle accident. 3 broken ribs. was at my moms for some basic help with food. im back home now.

    I saw your message and thank you for your time and effort. trying to download through the site but it says memory runs out. I have 8gb and 4gb available to use and it couldnt succeed.

    im going to try and install the ssd in my old amd 8320fx pc. run it there, and turn the pc off when it says "windows will restart" the first restart it does, pull it, put it in new pc and continue from there and see how it goes.

    It will install but you will end with no USB and may not boot as it doesn't have the SATA drivers.

    Can't understand why you can't download a 3G folder from the link I provided.

    I think I got it installed.

    I tried installing it on lenovo laptop. it showed me an error, so used this
    Solved: Setup was unable to create a new system partition or locate an existing system partition - YouTube

    then it was able to install it on the drive. took it out, put it in pc. no go. reset bios to defaults. that worked. but only usb 2 ports worked and I had no usb 2.0 stick around. so went back to laptop. burned files to dvd. too dvd and installed drivers. usb 3.0 worked. transfered other things. I dont think I installed all pertinent drivers yet, but amd gpu driver installed. now to tweak the hell out of it over the next 2 weeks before it gets to be online.

    finally got it done. pita. I cant stand w10 so no choice. I will reinstall w10 on another drive for specific programs needed that w7 doesnt support. maybe some games too. but it will never be connected to the internet.

    thank you all. very kind of you
