Hi all,

Strange problem that must have an easy fix but I cant figure it out.

Asus Z170M Plus
i5 6600k
3 * 240 GB SSD
1 * 4tb HHD
Windows 10

So PC posts with no issues but very rarely will it load into Windows first time. Usually it will go to the boot screen for the mobo and I have to manually tell it to boot from the OS drive before it will load Windows. Once it has done that there are no further errors and it works 100%. Maybe 1 in 5 times it will not load first time once I have told it which drive it should be booting from.

I have checked all physical connections 10 times and cant see nay obvious errors.

If someone can tell me what I am doing wrong I would be so grateful.

Cheers
 
Check the boot device is set correctly in the BIOS.

Are you using old SATA cables, especially for the boot drive? If so, may be worth replacing.
