Check if the drive uses legacy mode or UEFI. If it's an older SSD, you might need to enable legacy boot.

I encountered issues resetting to Windows after multiple blue screens and crashes. Attempted a reinstall, but it also failed during the process. Updating the BIOS was tried as a potential solution.

Reset the BIOS settings and switch to UEFI mode. If the operating system was installed on a GPT partition, boot in UEFI. Ensure the hard drive matches the installation configuration—RAID/IRST or AHCI. Do not alter these settings; otherwise, the OS will fail to start.

The sabrent drive could be nonfunctional. A friend owned one that failed on him. He replaced it with a 2tb, which also stopped working. Follow what kisai recommends.

Yes, that indicates a clear CMOS.

Ensure default configurations are loaded in the BIOS. If Cmos fails to access it or settings are incorrect, reset them back to standard.

I set up the computer three and four years ago, but I’m not sure exactly what I did. It seems like the standard defaults were used. Would a fresh CMOS reset perform better? Also, I need to confirm the BIOS keeps the latest system update intact.

All four RAM modules are installed, yet the BIOS only identifies b1 and b2. On the motherboard, the LEDs for b1, a1, and a2 are functioning properly. The LEDs for b2 are not working.

Bios updates will remain even after resetting or using default settings. To reset your CMOS, start by booting into the BIOS or UEFI. Choose options like "Reset to Default," "Load Setup Defaults," or similar. If you can't reach the BIOS, use the CMOS clear button. This button is usually on the back of the computer case near its connections or directly on the motherboard. There are also CMOS jumpers available.

It's positioned just beside my bios flashback option.
