M.2 SSD not being able to boot from it, windows doesn't recognise.
Good morning all
Think this is my first post here, I recently upgraded my pc and I am having trouble installing windows 10 home on an Evo 500gig ssd m.2, the motherboard etc supports the m.2 but when I go into boot drive etc and choose to boot from disk, windows lists my m.2 as a drive, but gives the error "this is not a bootable drive" so my question is how to fix this or bypass the error.
Ps: I have tried the following: On my motherboard clicked the setting to support wodows os, which according to the manual is for win 8 and up.
I did a clean build and install on all parts, all parts are listed and according to motherboard test works.
I tried it with the m.2 gene that the motherboard features, no luck.
After the normal ssd was placed in and the m.2 removed, it installed perfectly, pc running as it should, just slower then I'd like as I can't use my drive I want.
Oh, and I am not sure how to edit my system specs, so the ones listed in my profile is old, heres the new ones:
Intel core i9 7900x, msi gaming pro carbon x299 motherboard, 32gig 2400mhz crucial ram 8x4gigs, corsair 250gig ssd, but this is where I'd like the samsung evo 960 m.2 to be, and if relevant, it's a 970msi gfx, will be replaced.
Thank you, please excuse any stupid mistakes my made hehe
