Briefly explain your current issue(s)

PC won't boot into OS with the OS installed on SSD connected to the motherboard

Steps taken to resolve, but have been unsuccessful

check the bios.

I have 3 hard drives connected to my PC, but if I try to boot into the OS with the OS installed on SSD only without the other 2 hard drives, my PC refused to boot into Windows until I plug in other 2 hard drives which is a typical hard disk drive not SSD. My SSD has AHCI mode enable as well. The Sata cable that connected with the OS installed on SSD plugged into Sata cable 1 port on my motherboard. So if my two hard disk drives die, I won't be able to boot into the OS with the OS installed on SSD. Please help guys. I don't know what to do.

Yes, but by 350MB. You can follow the steps from the article above. Please backup important data if you are unfamiliar with partitioning.

Note : It's a lot easier and safer to manipulate partitions from outside of Windows. I use Minitool Partition Wizard Boot CD, version 9.

I can't type any number on Resize Partition tab, and I get the error at the end. Help please?

Thank you BoraMurdar for helping me out. Now my PC can boot into the OS fine without the other 2 hard disk drives connected. Here are the pictures of it. Everything looking good right guys?

There is a lesson to be learned here. When you install a operating system, only attach ONE DRIVE.

Then when you are all done installing the OS, attach the other drives, as they are probably for data anyway.

I believe I did that and that's how my Hard Drive Number 2 got the OS system partition drive in it.

SamTingWong, when you install an operating system, don't attach any extra drives, only your main SSD, I hope this translates better for you?

Did I bomb my PC?! On MSInfo32 windows display my BIOS Mode Legacy and Boot Device: \Device\HarddiskVolume2.
