Question M.2 SSD not displayed in Boot Sequence

[thrila1]

Hello,

I'm looking for some advice. I last built a PC many years ago in my student days and I've run into some trouble.

I just finished building a PC with a Z690 Aorus Pro motherboard and it does not recognise my 2 Samsung 980 m.2 SSD in the boot sequence. They are visible in the M.2 tab in the BIOS, but I cannot get them to show up in the boot sequence.

I don't have any other storage so at present I've not been able to get past the BIOS. I have tried enabling CSM support and switching onstorage boot option control to UEFI, but it did not help.

I really appreciate any advice anyone can provide.

Regards,
Thrila

what the os?
sound like you need to do a fresh os install

I don't have any OS installed, I can't install one because as far as windows is concerned I don't have any drives to install on.

I have 2 SSDs that I can't select under boot sequence, nor are visible when it comes to installing windows.

I flashed the bios with the latest driver and that has cured the problem.

I must admit, given how new the motherboard is I wasn't expecting it to be an issue solved by flashing the bios. In hindsight, I should have done this sooner, but thank you for replying to my post.
