F5F Stay Refreshed Hardware Desktop PC is working. I checked my mother's old SSD and it seems to be fine now. Booting isn't happening.

Hey there, I see you're having some trouble getting your PC running after the SSD swap. Let me break this down for you. It sounds like you moved an SSD from another drive to a different slot, which might have caused compatibility issues. Since the OS isn't booting, you might need to check the BIOS settings again—make sure the new SSD is recognized and set as the primary boot device. Also, verify that all cables are securely connected and that the M.2 slot is properly seated. If you're still stuck, try formatting the new SSD with a clean boot environment or consult your motherboard manual for further troubleshooting steps.

The boot option number one remains my M.2 setup, just as it was previously. In BBS priorities, it is also the highest priority.

It avoids a few lines then blinks. Do I have to make a USB stick to fix the bootloader? That’s strange, this happened on 2022-04-20 112022.mp4.

You may have to turn off CSM in the BIOS settings.

Uncertain if it was, but it functions again now. Thank you very much.

It's not really, just to check something. As @Kilrah mentions, you can turn off CSM or reset the BIOS by removing the battery and trying again.
