Hello Overclockers forum.
First of all, I've just signed up so, Hello one and all!
I have a bit of a mind boggler with my pc and was wondering if someone could shed some light on it...
I shut down my pc the other night after enjoying about 10 minutes with my new monitor.
The next evening when I booted up, it came up with the "no boot device" message.
So I checked the bios and all the drives were there... 2 SSD's & 1 HDD
I reseated all cables etc, the usual bits, but nothing would work.
Being in a bit of a rush to get back to things, I reinstalled windows onto my original C drive (ssd), having unplugged the other two first.
Once windows was installed I reconnected and searched, via windows explorer, and the drives were still not showing.
If I look via Disc Management, it shows all my drives. However I did notice that they are being shown with no partitions (the 'C' drive also showed this when installing windows).
From what I can see, they have been flashed or whatever the phrase may be...
I haven't got a clue what could have caused this and I have a new build on the way, but I still wouldn't mind knowing what could have caused this problem in the first place.
If anyone has any suggestions, I'd be happy to hear them.
Thanks in advance,
Potnoodlefan
P.s: When I reinstalled windows, it still had the same custom screensaver as before, even thought the Jpg. was no longer on the SSD...
