Computer Fails to Boot from Any Type of Device

[Saar Koren]

I recently got a 620W Enermax power supply to replace my 500W Antec. In the process of installing it, I managed to break my hard drive. This hard drive is just for games, my OS is on an SSD. I replaced it with a new 3TB hard drive that was tested on a different computer.

When turning on my computer with the new power supply and hard drive, the BIOS recognized both the hard drive and SSD, but it would not boot from the SSD that I used all this time. I tried different SATA headers and cables, checked the BIOS boot order and options, and tried with my old power supply as well. Then I tried reinstalling Windows on my SSD, but my computer wouldn't even boot from my Windows installation flash drive.

So I know that for some reason my computer won't boot up from anything. I tried my SSD as a secondary drive in a different computer and it worked fine.

Any ideas or suggestions?

Specs:
AMD FX-6300
ECS A970M-A Deluxe
8GB HyperX Genesis
Radeon HD 7950

try resting your bios to factory defaults and make secure boot is off and legacy boot is on.

Take out the HD and try again after resetting all BIOS settings to default. Would also suggest formatting 3 TB drive as GPT ina external dock such as the BlacX

Hey there, Saar Koren!

I'd agree with all the stuff the guys mentioned above. Another thing you should try is re-seating all your connections while at the BIOS reset. Here is a tutorial with the different ways to reset BIOS: http://www.wikihow.com/Reset-Your-BIOS
Make sure everything is properly connected.

If these don't work, I'd suggest you to check your mobo manufacturer for any firmware updates and flash the BIOS.

Good luck! Keep us updated!

Fixed it. Windows got corrupted somehow. Reinstalled it and everything works fine.
