Reboot and select proper boot device error

Hi

So today I've been updating drivers and the BIOS for my motherboard.

Everything was fine and it restarted several times without a problem.

Then of course on another restart I get the error "reboot and select proper boot device".

I cannot go into the BIOS and the keyboard and mouse don't work.

I literally cannot do anything, it starts up and then goes straight into that error.

I have no idea what to do and I'm confused as to why it decided to do this after several restarts.

I am in desperate need of some assistance to fix this problem!

Thank you
 
How many hard disks do you have? Try unplugging all but the one the OS is installed on.
 
I disconnected the blu ray drive and it boots fine, but whenever I connect the drive up it comes up with the error.

I've gone into the BIOS and the SSD is #1 and the secondary HDD is #2 as boot order so nothing changed there so I have no idea why this is happening.

I might go back to the old BIOS if it continues.
 
Are you windows 10 and controlling all driver updates, or did a driver get updated behind your back ?
If the blu-ray drive , kbd & mouse are all on usb does that driver have an issue - thought there was an issue with win10 using wrong usb3 drivers
 
Windows 10 is great huh? It has been a year, seems the issues should be fixed & I hate how it downloads even drivers behind your back... My net wouldn't work, seemed nothing worked, it would just randomly disco & I got DNS client Event in event viewer... I just put Windows 7 on again, getting tired of 10, found Windows 10 suddenly killing internet connectivity for some users, so that sounds fun...
