I am pretty sure I'm the first human in the whole universe and multiverses. Here it is... like an idiot I bought a 3.5" SATA drive for my laptop. I used it to install the OS through USB but I got the "Blue screen of death" when computer restart to finish the installation (XP). I am not sure if the size of the disk is the problem or is it because I tried to install through USB. I just bought a SATA cable. to connect the HDD to my laptop through SATA but before a receive the pakage I'd like to know if I'll still have the same problem (Blue Screen Of Death) and if so how can I solve it!!??
My laptop is no longer a laptop, but a desktop since I removed the LCD screen (even the battery actually, and the WiFi :D ). So it won't bother me a bit to have a computer with a mutated HDD.
yeah I know I'm a complete idiot. I only looked at the disk space and the price and I didn't careless about the size. :(
thank you.
2The fact is that there is no way it can possibly fit in your laptop. You might be able to use some convoluted workaround but you'll be wasting time/money and losing portability when you could just return or sell the 3.5" drive and buy a 2.5" one. – James P – 2013-03-19T17:35:35.347
@James my laptop is already a desktop for a longtime now I even removed the screen and I already used it (when I tried the install). I don't thing it will be correct to return it. I might be able to sell it back (even with a higher price ;) ) but we ought to know if it's going to work or not. – Paiku Han – 2013-03-19T18:58:57.813
