Gigabyte mobo BIOS problem
Gigabyte Z690 UD DDR4 mobo purchased with CPU. As of Friday morning, I can boot into Windows 10 Pro ONLY if the boot drive is ALONE.
When I connect my data HD spinning disk (Toshiba 3Tb) and the BIOS starts, data is listed as #1 in the boot sequence with the name UEFI OS (P2:TOSHIBA DT01ACA300). #2 is Windows Boot Manager (CT500P2SSD8). Names assigned by the mobo. Change the order to put boot first, Save & exit. When the BIOS restarts, data is first!
That said, a couple of times while I was trying to make this work, it didn’t revert and booted (the video card was out).
This mobo with the F1 Bios ONLY supports PCIe style M2 drives. Tech support recommended BIOS upgrade which I did but the software they provided did not let me make a copy of F1 first – bad decision. Their BIOS webpage does not have F1.
My M.2 boot drive is MVMe in a PCIe converter case and PCIe slot.
Gigabyte provides tech support entirely at their convenience, they only work M-Th.
Does anybody have any suggestions or, maybe, a copy of F1?
