Hello, I bought a new HP NVME M.2 SSD EX900 Plus 2TB and am attempting to replace my current WDC WDS240G2G0A-00JH30 (222GB) which is full. I've set it up as a drive, formatted, and partitioned it properly. My BIOS seems fine, but I don't have an update for the b360M extreme version. After booting, I expect to see the initial startup screen but only get a black screen afterward. What should I do? Thanks.

The process of relocating the operating system and boot partition from the previous drive to the new one involved several steps, including preparing the hardware, formatting the new drive, transferring the necessary files, and reinstalling the OS.

If you completely remove all drives except the 2TB Disk 0, will it start correctly? After completing the clone process, this should be the initial step you must take.

I can start up properly once all other drives are disconnected. But when I tried to restart, I closed it down, connected the remaining drives, entered BIOS, and checked the boot sequence—it still didn’t see it as a bootable device.

Try to take out the motherboard's CMOS battery for five minutes. In certain situations, you might need to remove the graphics card to reach the CMOS battery. Once done, press the power button on the case steadily for 15-30 seconds, so any remaining charge in the CMOS circuit is drained. When the five minutes are over, place the CMOS battery back in carefully, making sure it faces the correct direction as it was removed.
