I have a custom built machine that I built in 2012 and have upgraded a few things as I went. The most recent upgrade was with RAM - I had 2 sticks of 4 gb GSkillz DDR3 1333 RAM and I added 2 sticks of 8 gb DDR3 1866 RAM for a total of 24 gb. After adding the sticks, it showed 24 gb in the system info screen but I thought that it was actually slower.
So, I started looking around and ended up updating the BIOS - my version was F4 from back in 2011 and there was an F7 update from the most recent, but still was released back in 2015 I think. Got the update on a flash drive, went through update and all seemed fine until it went to restart.
Ever since then, I have been getting BSOD showing Inaccessible Boot Device, I got on my laptop, re-formatted my flash drive and put the F4 BIOS on there and rolled back the update, but that didn't help. I started in safe mode and tried a system restore back to yesterday, still no help. Really lost now.
