Hello everyone, I just upgraded my PC and am still using the older components for a media center/server. The main issue is that it always boots into BIOS at startup. A few details: I installed Windows via the Media Creation Tool and had two M.2 drives before. After removing one, I reinstalled Windows on the remaining one. I need to completely format that M.2, but I’m having some difficulty doing so. Either way, it’s still a functional Windows setup since I managed to boot into it and install a few things. Here are the steps I’ve tried: updated BIOS, reset BIOS to defaults, set boot priority to the M.2, reinstalled Windows, removed extra M.2 drives (including one with Windows already installed). My specs are Intel i7 7700k, Nvidia GTX 1070 MSI Z270, MSI Click BIOS 5, 2TB Crucial P5, and a Corsair RM750X M.2 drive.
