I'm not sure what you mean? Are you referring to other components? I just can't explain why it originally worked, and now, of four drives tried in that slot, one drive is consistently found but the others are not. Also the second drive in the second slot is always found. Still, I find it hard to...

Ok, So as I said, the machine started from the drive in a an enclosure. However, putting it back in the mobo m.2 slot and it was not recognized. I then tried a couple other drives. newer Silicon Power 2TB, and an old 256GB. Both were not recognized and did not show up in the BIOS. Only the...

Thanks for that info. I assigned D: to the drive in Disk Management and I was able to see the Windows install on it. I put it back in the machine m.2 slot and It still was not recognized by the motherboard. (which recognizes the Crucial drive) Not listed in the BIOS I then I plugged it into...

Do you mean the m.2 socket on the motherboard? The The Crucial drive is recognized in both the computer m.2 slot and the enclosure plugged into a different computer. The Samsung is now not recognized in either.

Actually, getting to the drive was way easier than I thought. This is what I did. 1. I removed the Samsung 2T drive, put it in a USB m.2 enclosure an plugged it into my other computer. It was not recognized by Explorer. However, Running Disk Management found it. (Disk 2 in the pic) As you can...

This is the next step. But it is a SFF build and I have to remove a lot to access the drive. It'll be a while before I can get it all back together to test. While it's apart I also have an unused m.2 drive that I'm going to install just to see if the BIOS sees it.

Thanks for that video link. I've done most of the suggestions except for enabling CSM because it is grayed out in my BIOS. The video explains that It is not available without an installed Graphic card. (I did not know this) I've been using the 9900x onboard graphics through the mobo HDMI port...

Followed the instructions. The Samsung disk was not found.

Already installed the most recent BIOS when I assembled two days ago. However, I just set the BIOS to defaults. Still no sign of the OS m.2 Drive. I guess removing it is the next step.

So I've been able to get the machine to start from a USB drive to see If I can repair the drive. My Options are: Startup Repair (This found nothing) -- UEFI Firmware Settings Command Prompt -- System Restore Uninstall Updates -- System Image Recovery However, I figured since the OS drive is...

So I've been building this machine and had it running fine. Windows is installed as are several apps. I just started it up and it goes directly to BIOS. In the BIOS I see the boot loader is missing and the OS drive (Samsung 990EVO Plus 2TB) not listed. The data Drive doe show in the BIOS. Any...

Same two HDs.

Thanks to all who responded. I followed instructions and it seems all is well. I now only have my account as administrator.

Thanks guys! After following the video instruction, device ID helped me determine it was ACPI/AMD GPIO drivers. After some internet traveling I found the AMD chipset driver utility, installed those drivers. All looks good now.

Same result as Disk Manager. The a 1TB Crucial CT1000MX500SSD dies not show.
