CMOS setup utility disabled boot device

Greetings Tucker,

I attempted to use the Ctrl+F function.

I held down the Ctrl key and hit the F key after the MSI logo presented itself hopefully that was the correct way to do it.?

Nothing happens it continued through to the blue screen..

Please let me know if that was the correct way or if there is an alternative way?

Thought I would give you a summary...

This is what I have to work with in the advanced bios screen.... it seems pretty limited.. do you see anything that looks wrong or anything that could be useful

Boot sequence press enter

Bios flash protection - disabled
Full screen logo display - enabled
Quick booting - enabled
Boot up num - lock LED - on
IOAPIC function - enabled
MPS table version - 1.4
Primary Graphics adapter - PCI - e
PCI latency timer - 64
HPET- enabled
On - chip VGA - enabled
VGA share memory - Auto
Umma location hyphen- above
Surround view - Auto
TCG/TPM Suppirt - no


I'd like to ask you a question - Given that I have no accessible boot device of any kind to work with ...This might be a silly question but is there a way to update the BIOS using another computer... to be specific a computer to computer connection...via SATA cable....

I know I am running out of options Thank you for your continued support and patience...

Regards,

Ed Zac

Greetings Tucker,

I entered Ctrl + f when I saw the MSI logo..

I attempted it three times it still went through or into blue screen... Auto Repair

Researching this ...It appears that raid has to be manually configured.... unless you're thinking it's standard protocol within an operating system...?

I don't think RAID was configured on my system.. my system was custom built and I never set it up... I will next time..

Greetings Tucker and spunk,

At this point I am contemplating taking it into a computer repair place.. the computer was built by an IT guy that used to work at our company...long gone

Spunk, as you suggested I went into integrated peripherals..

Table of contents and their status

USB controller - enabled
USB device Legacy support - enabled
Onboard Lan controller - enable
Lan option ROM - disabled
HD audio controller - enabled
On-chip SATA devices - press enter
I / o devices - press enter

Please know all of the above items where in Brackets.

I went into on chip ATA devices

Table of contents and their status

PCI IDE bus master - enabled
On - chip SATA controller - enabled
RAID Mode - IDE

All of the above are also in Brackets

I noted noted that it was set to IDE and not raid

As per your instructions I changed IDE to a ahci.

When I boot up it confirms ahci Drive initiation then it goes into repair mode

it also gave me another message when it confirms the ahci drive: press Ctrl a to enter hyperdrive utility.... which I did... on a second pass ..however that only provided me with a status screen showing:
ROM info
Device info

Currently all of my SATA devices remain in brackets and cannot be enabled.

Through the CMOS utility I have confined it to 1 SATA device-the HDD in order ensure that I am affecting change on that one device...

Thank you both for your input.

Regards,

Ed Zac
