    Why am I stuck on Checking Media Presence screen?


    My mom installed a 1Tb storage upgrade to my MSI laptop today and it booted up to the Aptio Setup. I’ve had the Aptio Setup issue before and it was my hard drive loose, but we fixed it. It had booted up the Aptio Setup and I followed a tutorial on how to make it accept the drive, saved it and restarted it, and now it is stuck in the >>Checking Media Presence…… >>No Media Present……. screen. It flashes for a few seconds snd then stops and remains on that screen. I don’t know how to fix it.

    :)

  3. Checking Media Presence

    Every time I boot up my PC (an alienware aurora r7) it first shows the alienware logo loading as usual, but switches to a black screen that says “checking media presence” and sometimes it flashes “no media present”, but then eventually the alienware loading screen shows up again and windows 10 loads up as usual. This all began to happen after I got a BSOD, but it said there were no hardware problems. I already ran DISM and system file checkers on the command prompt to check for corruption, but it already says it fixed them. I’ve restarted and ran the command multiple times, each time saying there are no problems after fixing the corruption. But the “checking media presence” still shows up. Is this something I should worry about and is this even a windows problem or a hardware problem I should check on dell? Also, I’m very dumb with computers, so if there’s some kind of explanation, please explain with as simple terminology as possible, thank you.
