    ok so I have had a SSD drive as my primary hdd for awhile with the dvd burner working well.. Today I replaced my burner with the factory hdd the computer came with, the hdd has been formatted and has music/game/etc files on it.. When I put the hdd with the replacement tray into the computer it hangs at boot with the windows symbol showing.. When I remove it the computer boots as normal.. I have checked the bios and have check for dvd rom on boot disabled..

    What am I doing wrong??

    well it boots, it just takes it about a minute longer than usual... Should I reformat the disc?
