There are orange lights coming from your motherboard during startup, but it isn't recognizing the SSD or hard drive during the boot process. You're having trouble getting it to power up.

The display appears to be completely cosmetic. (source) You're wondering why it isn't identifying the drives? It does show a 1 TB drive connected via the SATA port.

You're correct. But your boot screen doesn't show the boot drive, and it jumps straight into BIOS. Try checking the physical connections or consulting the manual for troubleshooting steps. Thanks!

Is your SSD using an M.2 drive? The BIOS seems to recognize a Windows UEFI boot option, which suggests the drive is likely an M.2 unit. This gives me confidence that the hardware is working properly. If the computer suddenly failed to boot into Windows, the most likely issue is a damaged boot loader. In that scenario, you’d need to generate a Windows installation media for your desired version, launch the command prompt, and run several repair commands. Others may be able to assist with this process. Numerous tutorials are available on fixing boot loaders.

It's an SSD. You can find the Windows UEFI boot choice in the settings. It's part of the Windows Boot Manager. To make installation media, set up the correct boot files and adjust the boot loader configuration. Your help is appreciated!

Yes, that's accurate. During the Boot Sequence, the Windows Boot Manager appears, indicating the motherboard is properly recognizing your SSD. Which Windows version were you using—10 or 11? Do you have another PC available for testing? You'll need a backup machine to generate a bootable drive.

You must download the Media Tool and insert a USB drive with at least 8 GB into your computer. Launch the application and choose "Create installation media for another PC," then proceed through the instructions until the download begins. After completion, we can begin addressing the boot loader issue.

Sorry about the mix-up. I didn’t realize I had to go through the UEFI settings during the recovery process. After that, I only booted into BIOS, which isn’t what I expected. I hope I didn’t miss a crucial detail earlier.
