Windows 10: Windows error after BIOS update

Hey everyone. I have just built my first PC and am having some issues. I am using windows 10 with an aorus gigabyte elite wifi MB and a Ryzen 5 2600. I have two NVMe hard drives labeled C and D. During my initial install, I had installed windows to the D drive and it was working well.



The issue came up when I updated the MB bios from f11 to f30o. After I tried to reboot, I got an error message that an operating system was not found and the computer was unable to boot up. I was able to boot up a fresh copy of windows 10 on the C drive from a USB. When I got into windows, I could still see my files on the D drive however whenever I tried to boot from that drive through the bios menu I get the same error that the operating system isn't found. Any idea of what is causing the error? If not, is there a way to pull my users, preferences, and files from the old windows files into the new that I have running? Thanks for any info you can help with.

Should I update bios?

I would read the warranty before doing anything. If the manufacturer finds out you did something not on their approved list of steps,for example using a program they didn't list, or a bios, etc, they can treat your video card rma like you threw it against the wall , because if something goes wrong and you didn't follow their steps exactly ,it was damaged through human error and they're not likely going to be obligated to cover it warranty wise. I don't know for sure, I just advocate that you check first , and I also advocate that you verify that it's an actual update ,because very rarely do manufacturers release updates for gpu bios'. And they most certainly wont cover a GPU "update" if its a bios file written by some dude in the Ukraine, it has to be a set process, they have predetermined often.

 

Should I update bios?

Lol, there is still so many myths about flashing bios and people actually believe in them. People, this is 2018, not 1998, bios updates are easy and when file is provided by manufacturer themselves then they do RMA gpus, motherboards, mice and all other devices which failed during flashing.
