Hello Tawe, welcome to the forum

Filling out your system specs would help us to better answer your questions.

This problem can be caused by both hardware or software problems, from my own experience WDP can in some circumstances mistake your HDD/SSD for a removable device.

When you install WDP everything seems to go OK until the last restart, when your PC restarts the last time before this bluescreen appears watch carefully the BIOS boot sequence to make sure that your HDD/SSD is detected if it is not you need to completely switch off the PC before booting gets to where WDP starts and then switch on the PC again, checking that the HDD/SSD is present in BIOS before allowing WDP to carry on with the rest of the install. You may get a different blue screen in which case you will have to ask again for help.

If the HDD/SSD is not missing at boot try this tutorial; http://www.eightforums.com/tutorials/2269-system-recovery-options-boot-windows-8-a.html?ltr=S

Start at option 2 and then the automatic repair try this at least 3 times. If you still cannot boot your PC try the refresh option, and then let us know how you get on

There are different types of BIOS but you should find it under the SATA configuration.

If it is set to IDE you should try it out as AHCI and Vice versa

Note you can not just change the setting to AHCI you need to make a registry change first, going back the other way should not be a problem.

AHCI : Enable in Windows 7 / Vista - Windows 7 Forums

It would be wise to create a system restore point before doing this in case you get unexpected results System Restore Point - Create - Windows 7 Forums

I have just seen the part about a laptop, you may not be able to change this setting!!
