Windows 10: DMI Pool Hang...Windows 10 Recovery?

Okay, sounds good.

 

Holy crap. I used the dis in the link you gave me and it took me to a desktop and I can see the entire contents of the primary disk. So, guess that means the cables are fine. It also me as I can backup the oneset of photos that I forgot to do a week ago. Man...this is going to save my ass even if I can't get the drive to boot. Thanks a ton!


Unfortunately, the 'fix boot' did not get this thing to boot. I dont understand. I can see teh disk and everything on it. All bootable things Ive done have shown the disk. The disk checks out OK on SeaTools. Why wont the GD thing boot?

 

Glad you got those pics backed up! I don't know why it won't boot, except for perhaps the BIOS update. Maybe a fresh install on your new drive will sort things. Sorry. *Sad

 

OK. WERE IN!

I used that disk in the link and was able to install and use the @BIOS software. I installed the latest bios update, FH...and it booted. Ive loaded optimzed defaults but the system seems a little slow. Perhaps I had tweaked before, but before I install the software for that, I better use it for a few days and test stability as is.

WTF...I have no idea what flipped out. Thank you all for your guidance and support. Its appreciated and pretty clear that I wouldnt have gotten it if not for the help here.

 

HAPPY DANCE! *Dinesh*Dinesh*Dinesh

So glad you got that sorted! Keep the BIOS at defaults for now.*Thumbs Go ahead and mark the thread as solved. Cheers!

p.s. @Kyhi comes to the rescue again with his awesome rescue media!

 

Seriously. That disk was like a cornucopia of useful tools, that thankfully, I didn't have to get too far into but definitely was nice. Well done one that...very well done, indeed!

 

Keep it handy, and check his page for updates on a regular basis. Have Cortana remind you. It's pure gold. *Wink

 

Thank You...
Glad it helped...

 

Short loved victory......and it's dead again. I added an ssd and moved the data cable around and it's hung on dmi pool data all over again. GD this thing.

May need that disk anyway...man I'm at a total loss. Why would.moving cables matter?

 

UGH! Is the firmware current on the SSD?

 

Ssd is unplugged right now. No boot.

Something must be bad on this mobo. I can't reset the cmos either...it does nothing.

Can this be a virus or somethong? How can I check?

 

Hmmmm....I don't think a virus would cause this. I am not sure how to troubleshoot a MB. Perhaps uncheck as "solved" and one of the hardware experts will assist? Or, there may be TS guides from the MFG online, or a support contact page? I can't help you with this one; I am not a hardware expert. Sorry. *Sad

 

I just don't understand....new bios flash fixed it...and then moving cables and pulling power killed it agin.

 

Maybe a cable is bad, or one of the connections on the MB is bad?

 

Can you buy a 1366 mobo anymore for cheap?
