Initiating boot from BIOS settings.
Initiating boot from BIOS settings.
I assembled my initial computer and frequently encountered issues with the boot sequence. Despite checking various sources, the boot order was incorrect, yet switching it resolved the problem and kept me in BIOS. Accessing Windows requires entering BIOS, navigating to Boot Manager, and selecting the Windows option. I recently installed the system about a week prior if you need details on the components.
Yes, the computer includes a storage device such as a hard drive or solid-state drive.
I missed noting it down—it's the Samsung 970 EVO Plus with 1TB (this is me, I just couldn't get into my access).
I noticed you mentioned the Samsung 970 EVO Plus with 1TB, that's correct.
The bios might be displaying an error message upon startup. I’ve experienced this when setting up my first PC. Once you power it on, a screen appears before you reach the bios menu—often showing something like “American Megatrends.” In my case, there was a warning or error displayed. It usually shows near the bottom of the screen, and it’s just an image I found online. Try accessing it and see what appears; it might not require going into the bios at all, but if you do, let me know what you see.
I grasp your point completely. I saw that screen before since I connected the CPU fan to the incorrect header, but it’s resolved now and I’m still encountering issues with the BIOS.
It seems like the boot order might be incorrect. Your SSD configured for Windows could be missing from the first boot selection.
