Boot Issue :(

Huggie86 · 21 Jul 2014 at 13:33

Just got a new MSI Gaming 5 motherboard along with a 4790k.

Installed everything fine, reinstalled windows to the SSD, have done all updates etc.

But sometimes when I turn the computer on it comes up saying please insert correct boot drive or device. If I restart it it will then boot into windows ok.

No idea why it is doing this as the SSD and everything was fine on my old motherboard.

Anyone have any ideas?

SSD is about 3-4 years old. It's a OCZ Vertex I believe. If you could link me that post that would be great.

Anything seem wrong here?

Updated bios and everything else I can get my hands on, all windows updates done.

It is still doing it

I'm afraid not, it is stilling doing it and seems to be getting worse. Today it took me 6 restart attempts before it finally got into windows.

Always the same black screen saying please insert valid boot device or drive.
All drivers installed, all updates done, bios updates, checked all connections.
