  1. Issues with new SSD windows boot manager


    Hi, I recently upgraded my SSD to a larger size, when I first powered on my PC it worked fine, but when windows restarted I was put into windows boot manager, and it gave me the error that no HDD was found (error 2100). but when i powered off my PC and Powered it on again, I was back in windows, no problems. This problem only happens when i restart my computer from the windows interface, not by holding the power button, then turning it on again.


    I tried running San-Disk's SSD utility, and it said there were no problems with my device. When i checked the connections from my SSD to the SATA port, everything was fine. no loose connections anywhere in my PC.


    I tried anything i could find related to my problem on google:

    • Updated my BIOS
    • Tried to update my SSD firmware
    • Updated windows
    • Ran a full security check


    After all of this, I was still running into the same problem... until I entered BIOS through the Lenovo splash screen, this is where my SSD was then detected by BIOS and when I ran diagnostics on it, it was fine. Excited, I restarted my PC through windows (what has caused the problem previously) and I ran into the same problem. I have a few guessed as to what the problem might be, but there wasn't much reliable info on what was wrong:

    • There are 2 separate BIOS's running on my laptop
    • There is a max supported storage on my computer and 512gb is too much (my laptop is a Lenovo Yoga S1)


    Is there anything else that could cause my problem, and is there a solution to any of these problems?


    Cheers,

    -Cap

  2. Issue with a new SSD and Windows Boot manager

    Recently I did install a new SSD into my Aurora R7. I've unplugged my HDD, installed the SSD, used Windows on an USB and installed the Windows on the SSD. Then formatted the HDD. It works fine and my computer boots in seconds but if I go to BIOS and try
    to change the boot order the only thing showing there is Windows Boot Manager and some other 2 options which I can specify if needed. There is no sign of the SSD. Thanks for help!

    Issue with a new SSD and Windows Boot manager

    A UEFI system boots to a Windows Boot Manager, not a drive. On your attachment, you are booted into the smaller drive.

    There may be an expanded description which would identify the SSD.

    Issue with a new SSD and Windows Boot manager

    Hi Matej

    If you have UEFI BIOS you will not see your drives listed in the Boot preferences, you will have Secure Boot, the only way to see the drives on your system would be to swap to Legacy BIOS - please don't do that!

    Are you having a problem booting your system from that SSD or is there another reason you need to change the boot order . . .
