Windows 10: Computer no longer recognises boot hard drive

Earlier today my pc crashed, upon restarting my computer booted from my hard drive rather than my ssd, showing old files, wallpapers etc. When looking on device manager, my ssd can be seen by my pc, however when looking in file explorer there is nothing to be seen. Is there any solution other than wiping my ssd and using a fresh windows install as I would like to keep my files if possible.Thanks

Windows won't boot, doesn't recognise hard drive

Hello,

I am trying to boot up my Dell PC, but it keeps coming up with a BOOT error, 0xc000014c.

The PC keeps trying restart itself. When I do a diagnostics check, it doesn't recognise the hard drive being there, so fails this test. Assuming this is the issue as to why it won't boot up.

Any suggestions how to rectify this?

Daniel

 

External hard drive not recognised

Thanks for this. I've done what you suggested and been through all the steps mentioned in the article. The hard drive works fine on a Mac computer, and I've managed to copy the information on it. It must be a Surface issue so I'll try to get a chat line tomorrow.

 

Hard drive not recognised

Computer has 2 drives a SSID that that it boots from and a internal hard drive. It doesn't recognise that hard drive on file explorer. Disk management shows the disc as there but unknown and not initialised with a red arrow. Disc contains data that
I don't want to overwrite.

How do I restore the recognition?
