I have 99 problems, and haven't fixed 1

[SaltyMonkeyy]

So, the issue started out being it wasn't allocating my 1 terabyte hard drive in my custom built pc. Everything was fine, and it was booting from my SSD. I wasn't aware of this, and needed to change to get everything saved on my HArd drive, seeing as how with my games installed, I was out of memory. Then, upon formatting stuff and playing with files, I managed to accidentally click on something which made it so my SSD can no longer be used to boot. I don't know how to fix this, and I can't afford to spend any more money on this gosh darned thing! If anyone can help, that'd be great.

Gosh, you are looking for a buddy who can hold your hand for days, maybe weeks. Good luck with that.

Doesn't sound like money, but time.

Can you start from scratch, re-install everything as if you are building this today?

Hi and welcome to Tom's forum.

Do you get an error when try to boot? Do you see any message?

Well, after playing a bit more with it,I can still get it to boot via the sad. However, when I do, my PC makes literally no use of the terabyte of memory I have, even though it is registered by the PC :/

could you explain that more clearly? i have a few questions.

do you know exactly what you did before?

what have you done to get it working again?

the TB of memory, is this another drive? still on the same ssd?

if its a separate drive, does that drive show up in explorer?

Sure! Sorry, I'm very new to all this stuff ^-^ The terabyte hard drive is a seperate drive altogether, which does show up in every window that displays drives and such. I don't know what I pulled it up in, but the window said the name of it, followed by "unallocated space." Unfortunately, after everything I have tried, I can't seem to get it to actually be used for any storage, if that makes sense. I wanted it to hold all my games that I download, but it doesn't allow any data at all to be written on it. If that even makes sense.. >.<
