I forgot about this post, the pc upgrade is done guys, you can see the config below, thank you everyone for your kind help CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 5700X 3.4 GHz 8-Core Processor CPU Cooler: Deepcool AK500 ZERO DARK 68.99 CFM CPU Cooler Motherboard: Gigabyte X470 AORUS ULTRA GAMING ATX AM4 Motherboard...

I am not gonna do that as it's not really necessary. Are there any major advantages of enabling it?

I made a windows usb but it wasn't needed, managed to convert to GPT using mbr2gpt utility and this is how the drives look like: screenshot. Can I format the 500 MB partition now without any issues? I might sound stupid but do I need to convert the other drive to GPT? Is the conversion needed...

Are you sure all my storage supports it? I don't want to risk switching to UEFI as I don't have a spare windows installation USB drive right now in case the mbr2gpt conversion goes wrong.

This is my pc : PCPartPicker Part List CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 5700X 3.4 GHz 8-Core Processor ($169.99 @ Newegg) CPU Cooler: Deepcool AK500 ZERO DARK 68.99 CFM CPU Cooler ($44.98 @ Newegg) Motherboard: Gigabyte X470 AORUS ULTRA GAMING ATX AM4 Motherboard Memory: Corsair Vengeance LPX 16 GB (2 x...

I followed the steps in post #2 (changed K to E) and this screenshot is how the disks look in disk management now, can I use mbr2gpt to get UEFI mode now?

Okay, so if I create a bootloader partition called K drive (which will be marked System) on Disk 0 along with C drive which is the windows partition (which will be marked as boot) I can switch to GPT and UEFI with no issues? And if I let the bootloader partition and windows partition be on C...

I think I figured out what the issue is, I think Windows somehow got installed on both the SSD (Disk 0) and HDD (Disk 1), I went into the BIOS and changed boot order and put the SSD (Disk 0) as the first option, and then pc booted up and I checked disk management and it's showing both system and...

Wouldn't this create a boot partition on Disk 0 which already has boot parition on C drive?

I recently upgraded my GPU and processor, after the upgrade I had some issues and the storage space on my C drive was filling up for no reason so I decided to just reinstall Windows because I was worried it might be a virus. I created a bootable USB using media creation tool, during the...

So I tried a different monitor and had no issues on that and on my monitor (on which I had the issue) when I removed the power cable and reconnected it the green tint/background magically vanished and things were normal. Maybe there are some compatibility issues between the monitor and the...

I got a new HDMI cable and that didn't fix the issue.

Will changing the monitor fix it? I am just worried the problem might be more deeper and that it could harm the gpu or mobo or any other component.

Connected using HDMI cable, will try a different HDMI cable. Will try other methods too, but gigabyte bios versions ending with letters are beta, isn't it risky to try beta versions of bios?

I upgraded my pc and my bios color changed from red and black background to green background with white text (image is not my screen just an example), even the windows loading screen is green instead of black with the blue windows logo and white loading circle (animation). Screen colors are fine...
