It's a 2TB 2.5" portable drive, currently has a 1.8tb encrypted partition with veracrypt, a 300mb fat 32 partition, and a (now 26gb) ntfs system partition. I'll explain a little more about the drive. And we recommend that you create the partitions using Windows Disk Manager.

I'm at a loss as to what to do, as it doesn't provide me with any error messages. When I select the USB hard drive on my laptop, I just get the same blank/black screen as before. I setup the hard drive to boot in legacy/BIOS mode and ran it through the process again.When I select the USB hard drive on my laptop, it just ignores it and goes to the next bootable option and starts booting up the internal hard drive. I setup the hard drive to boot as UEFI and ran it through the process again.However, just to try a few different options, I had a look inside bios (luckily they didn't lock it down) and I can see that it's setup to boot in legacy mode and not UEFI. I take it back to my older PC and it boots fine. I don't get any windows boot logos or warnings. After a few minutes i try hitting a few keys on the keyboard and it just starts beeping at me. After I select the USB hdd as the boot drive, it just goes to a black screen. My work gave me a new HP zbook mobile workstation to replace my old laptop, and it too won't boot from the portable hard drive. I tried it on my wife's new laptop (roughly 3 months old), it wouldn't boot, it just goes to a blank/black screen. It worked on my older PC (about 8 years old), and on my works old laptop (no idea how old).

The partition or drive that receives this Windows installation will be formatted, so you need to backup or move the data to another location if there is.I installed windows 10 on a portable hard drive with WinToUSB using the Bios/UEFI method.
