My previous motherboard crashed, and I recently purchased a new one along with a new CPU. I installed a new hardware and attempted to boot up my PC but in the bios of the new motherboard it says there are no bootable devices. As far as I can tell there are no issues with any of the hard drives I using this PC, and I'm able to see all the drives in the storage configuration on the BIOS. I assume I will need to do a clean install of Windows, but I was wondering if there is any way I can save any of the existing data on the hard drives.. thanks in advance for your help.
