HI, I'm new to this forum. I have Alienware M14x R2 (2012), just got a new SSD. I installed windows 7 from USB on the new SSD where first run went by just fine. Then, when it is rebooting to complete the installation, the hard was not reading and kept giving me this error, " disk read error occurred press ctrl+alt+del to restart".

What I did after was I tried to install Windows 7 again on another laptop. The installation was over in a flash, both initial and final installation, like what you'd normally expect. It booted up but has nothing inside, so I swapped the SSD back to Alienware, hoping that it would work. It did not. It gave me the same response, " disk read error occurred press ctrl+alt+del to restart".

PS. the HDD works perfectly on Alienware

Please HELP.

Thank you in advance
