Question Computer not recognizing Windows Drive

[jwdickey34]

Ok so yesterday this problem started happening to my computer. It would show me the BIOS screen and then just turn blank and not do anything. I tried to do a system restore and system reset and everything and it won't let me do anything. I then tried to boot to safe mode and still nothing. I booted to command prompt and did the whole chkdsk and sfc scannow stuff and it still wasn't working. I tried taking out my videocard (R9 280) and changed around my boot settings in BIOS and somehow I got it to boot to some old version of windows I had already installed on one of my hard drives but now windows is saying it does not recognize my SSD which is where I had windows previously. It doesn't show up at all on windows but it is in the BIOS as my first boot priority. Please help I've tried so many things. I'm just using the version of windows I had before I got my SSD two years ago and using the onboard Intel graphics so I really can't do much with it.

Did you unplug and re-plug the cables of the SSD? Try it in different SATA headers?

Yeah that is the first thing I tried no luck though

Is the SSD listed in the boot menu? If it is, then it is being seen, but you will have to move it to the first slot ( Top ) and set it as the Boot Device.

Was everything working using the same configuration before this issue? If so It sounds like your ssd may have failed.
