Hello.
I bought this laptop 2 weeks ago and it comes with a 2nd bay to place another hard drive.
So I installed a 250gb Samsung evo and did the migration to it. However windows explorer was crashing all the time. So I did a system reset. Turned it on. Then I had to leave and turned off. When I came back home, my pc wasn't starting up and no drivers were recognized in the bios

Hey there, Lucas!

I'd recommend you to go to your laptop manufacturer's website and make sure you get the drivers from there or use your Drivers Pack CD. Another thing you could try is checking how the drives are showing up in another computer, make sure there's nothing wrong with them.
I'm not sure if you've tried that already, but I'd recommend you to try resetting BIOS from the settings as well. Here's a tutorial that might shed some light: http://www.wikihow.com/Reset-Your-BIOS
Just make sure you re-configure your BIOS settings afterwards, because this will get them back to factory defaults.

Good luck! Keep me posted! :)
