Long story short I got a new laptop and bought a Samsung 830. In my desktop I have an M4 (boot drive) and V2 (with only steam games on it). I deleted the V2 partition whilst in windows and turned the PC off, so the plan was to put the 830 in my desktop and V2 in my new laptop, the problem I have is that I can't boot my desktop any more. It says please select boot media device
The M4 is set as my primary drive
I've tried windows repair to no avail
If I boot off windows CD I can browse the M4 and all the files searching for recovery driver etc and see my windows folder
When booting the laptop with my new windows installation it asked which windows I wanted to boot from like a dual partition.
I can't figure out why I cant boot from my M4, nothing has changed. Do I need to reinstall my desktop or does anyone have an idea? Currently got my M4 plugged into my laptop taking off all the important files and I can see all the windows files fine. Anyone got an idea if I can salvage it?
