Hello everyone, thanks for checking in! 😊
I recently took a plunge and got a bunch of new parts, which culminate in an entirely (mostly) new machine.
Migrated my old storage devices (M.2s, SSDs and a HDD) booting from my existing OS (Windows 10 Home) but to my horror upon booting, I found that the majority of my data was missing, especially files I kept on my Desktop (totally empty!). Notably, booting was not uneventful, the mainboard lingers a while flashing red>orange>white>green with no display signal, then I eventually reach an error screen which I'll attach below. From there I reach Windows using the boot menu options to force my way into the OS. Sometimes, it boots straight into windows after lingering too.
The drive still presents as filling a decent capacity when viewing their properties (that's normal) but upon going into their directories most of my data is absent...
I'll be so grateful for anyone's advice or insight... I'll list all my components below, highlighting the new parts, the old parts I transferred to this new build. If you require further details just let me know and I'll be happy to share!
Brand new parts in the new system:
