"INACCESSIBLE_BOOT_DEVICE" error when upgrading to 8pro
Hi everyone!
Just got my brand new HP Envy DV7250US with Windows 8 (64) pre-installed. Recently I got boughr windows 8 pro (64) and would like to install/upgrade this on my HP laptop. Popped the 8 pro disc in, went to 'my computer', launch the dvd, installed it. Halfway during the installation, my laptop reboots, which it is suppose to do (installation process) but then when it looks like its starting up, I get a BSOD:
INACCESSIBLE_BOOT_DEVICE
It only stays there for 0.5 seconds (so couldnt read the entire error) and reboots again and keeps doing this over and over again.
What did I do wrong? Boot order is set to cd/dvd, my 8 copy is legit because it came with the laptop from factory and my 8 pro is also legit from newegg.com
Thank you for your help and time!
