    So i had a failed hard drive before on my hp envy m7 series.

    So installed a new hard drive the travelstar..I also using my windows 8.1 cds installed a fresh os and drivers.. However after the drivers disc installs i get a blue screen saying inaccesible boot...

    I tried installing fresh twice now? My hard drive is recognized i checked...

    Also the switch from the Achi or what not people are saying i tried to acess that but i dont have an advanced menue when in bios?

    Any suggestions?
