Hello
I just installed a new Samsung 860 EVO SSD into my Samsung Series 7 Chronos Model NP700Z5A ( NP700Z5A-S04US ).
Ok, I am booting from a usb drive that has the windows iso image. I get through the whole install process and once the laptop restarts it takes me back to the windows installation process again and again from step one. I even have gone into the bios and switch the boot order to boot off of the new SSD and still does it. I tried unplugging the usb boot drive and restart and it just goes into a boot loop and the screen turns on and off continuously. Bios is reading the drive and everything. I deleted all partitions.
This particular model does come with a express ssd cache of 8gb installed on the mother board. Would that be interfering? It does not show up in the bios but the windows installation tool does see it in the initial set up.
Im stuck. And need desperate help!
Here is a link to my notebook - https://www.samsung.com/us/support/owners/product/np700z5a
And a link to the SSD I installed - Robot Check
Thanks in advance.
