    My PC now only boots into its BIOS after a botched windows reinstall


    I was reinstalling windows 10 via usb and wiping partition disks as I was planning sell the PC. During deleting the partition disks and proceeding to the next stage my power cut out and as I re-booted the pc I am now stuck at my BIOS settings and unsure how to get back to anything. BIOS is msi b550m wifi pro vdhI don’t care about the data as I have already transferred it all onto another USB however I just want to get back to where I was or just not see the bios screenThanks.

    :)

    Windows will only boot if forced in BIOS

    Hello everyone, another really strange issue appeared yesterday ^^
    Basically the PC wouldn't boot, it would just turn my monitor off after "Starting Windows".
    The PC was able to boot in safe mode AND using the integrated VGA so I thought of a drivers issue.
    Uninstalled and reinstalled drivers countless times, even tried to switch to an old GTX 260. Still couldn't boot.
    So I reinstalled the OS entirely. (Had a partition with W8 and that was working fine).
    Installed 680 drivers, restart and bam, monitor goes off and the computer just won't do anything (HDD LED's off). Then I plugged out my spare SSD with W8 in it. Booted, and it worked. Whatever, I guessed. Tried to reboot again, same issue.
    What I have concluded now is that if I try to boot the OS from the BIOS (don't have a boot menu, just one integrated in the BIOS) it would boot fine 90% of the time. That's really strange to me. I would upgrade the BIOS or restore the default settings but I'm afraid to lose my RAID once again (would be like the 4th tme eheh)
    Any suggestions appreciated!

  4. My PC now only boots into its BIOS after a botched windows reinstall

    My pc will only turn onto the bios settings

    If your PC is only turning on to the BIOS settings and you are unable to boot into Windows, it may be due to a hardware issue or a problem with the operating system. Here are some steps you can take to try and fix the issue:

    1. Check the boot order in BIOS:
    • Enter the BIOS settings by pressing the appropriate key (usually F2 or Del) during startup.
    • Look for the "Boot" or "Boot Order" section and ensure that the hard drive or SSD that contains the operating system is set as the first boot device.
    • Save any changes and exit the BIOS.
    1. Check for loose connections:
    • Turn off your PC and unplug it from the power source.
    • Open up the PC case and check all connections between components (such as the hard drive or SSD and the motherboard) to ensure they are properly seated.
    • Close the PC case, plug it back in, and turn it on to see if the issue is resolved.
    1. Perform a startup repair:
    • Use the Windows installation media (such as a USB drive or DVD) to boot into the advanced options screen.
    • Select "Startup Repair" and follow the prompts to attempt to repair any issues with the Windows operating system.
    1. Reinstall Windows:
    • Use the Windows installation media to perform a fresh install of the operating system.
    • Note that this will erase all data on the hard drive or SSD, so make sure to backup any important files beforehand.
    If none of these steps solve the issue and you continue to see the "no bootable device detected" message, it may be due to a hardware failure such as a faulty hard drive or SSD. In that case, you may need to replace the failing component or seek professional assistance.
