The PC fails to start following the installation of a new M.2 drive.
I've been operating my computer normally and here are the details: Ryzen 5 1600 af, B450 Aorus Elite, RX 580 Strix, 16GB HyperX Fury 3200MHz, 120GB M.2 HP Ex900, 1TB HDD, BeQuiet system power 9.6kW, Deepcool Gamma X 240 v2. After an upgrade with a new 1TB M.2, the PC failed to boot. Fans and RGB were active but the AIO didn<|pad|>'s fault and no display appeared. I returned everything to its original state, but the issue persisted.
Your initial storage device was the M.2 drive. Did you swap out the previous M.2 model for the new one?
You can clear the BIOS by taking out the CMOS battery. Follow the instructions in your guide: the first M.2 port works with both SATA and NVME, while the second only supports NVME. If your 1TB storage is SATA, replace it with the boot drive and change the boot sequence in BIOS.
The original boot drive was the 120gb.m.2 and there are two slots on the motherboard. Even if the PC can't read them, it will display the motherboard logo, but in my situation it doesn<|pad|> to show nothing.
I attempted to delete it, but it didn’t resolve the issue. I also tried swapping the M.2 drives several times, but it didn’t make a difference.
