Windows 10: select proper boot device or insert boot media

Hi,

I have been running a stationary computer (windows 10 pro) for about one year now. never failed before.

Last night I upgraded, a rather large upgrade, duration 1 hour or more.


After the upgrade the message on the screen is "select proper boot device or insert boot media". This means that I never leaves the BIOS level as I see it.


This i what I tried to fix the problem, all with the same negative outcome and same text message:

• I removed all peripherals and attempted to reboot
• attempted to boot from original Windows DVD media
• attempted to boot from Paragon recovery USB key
• I removed all extra PCI cards (except graphics card)
• i installed an old system-drive

Clearly this was caused by the update, but I do not understand what can cause this. And I have no chance of rolling back.

I understand that a harddrive could be corrupted, but the boot attempts from other devices or even another drive tells another story, I believe.



The PC is a self built, and has not failed before.

Motherboard: Gigabyte Z170


Any ideas, please?


Thanks

:)

How To Fix
