SAMSUNG SSD NOT DETECTED BY FUJITSU LIFEBOOK LAPTOP

[GEORGIOSZACH]

Hallo everybody!

I have a Fujitsu LIFEBOOK PH530 laptop with windows 7 pre-installed.
Since my laptop is getting old and slow I bought a SAMSUNG EVO 860 SSD drive to change the pre-installed SEAGATE HDD.I used the SAMSUNG DATA MIGRATION software to migrate the drive c of my Fujitsu laptop, including the operating system of Windows 7 to the new Samsung SSD 860 Evo.
Unfortunately although all files from drive c have been copied when I installed the Samsung Evo 860 SSD to my Fujitsu laptop I got a message saying:

Check cable coble connection!
PXE-M0F: Existing Intel PXE ROM.
Operating system not found

I entered the bios setup of my laptop and the SSD installed is not detected. I go to the ''system settings'' where it is mentioned:

Drive 0: [ None]

Is my laptop compatible with SSD drives? Do I have to install drivers for the ssd so it can be detected by my Fujitsu laptop?

Thank you very much in advance.

Dear Sir or Madam,
thank you very much for the reply!

I have already checked the BIOS settings: Serial ATA controller (Enabled) and AHCI configuration (Enabled) but it didn't bring any result. SSD still not detected.

The BIOS of my laptop is the 1.09 (10/12/2010). According to the Fujitsu Technical Support page for the LIFEBOOK PH530 series available BIOS versions are the 1.06 (29/06/2010) and the 1.05 (18/06/2010) that are earlier than the pre-installed.
Should I install the 1.1.1.0 BIOS version? The 1.1.1.0 version that should be the most current one, is compatible with Windows 8 operation system and not with the Windows 7 x64 professional that came pre-installed with the LIFEBOOK PH530 laptop. Should i upgrade the BIOS to the 1.1.1.0 although the operation system remains Windows 7?

Thank you very much for your help.

I am looking forward to your response.
Kind regards,
Georg Z
