Set-up:
1. On the 500gb HDD I had one Windows 7, and a not working Windows 8 on another partition
2. On the 24GB SSD I had Linux Mint on a dual-boot
Lately Windows 7 had some errors, freezing and stuff. Booting took like 7 minutes, but then it worked for a an hour or so.
I continued with Linux and was preparing an Windows 7 bootable USB. Somehow I reinstalled grub, and after I restarted it all begun.
1st error:
reboot and select proper boot device
Couldn't find any boot options in the BIOS except DVD.
I've tried something by disabling/enabling 'launch csm' and now get this:
I can't even add any new boot option by myself anymore. Even the DVD one is missing.
When I add a new boot option, hit enter and nothing - it doesn't show up.
How am I supposed to do anything if I have zero boot options now?
I doubt that it will boot into the USB I'm preparing right now.
Would it be worth to try to remove the CMOS-battery?
Only problem it is a Laptop, is there maybe some trick to do it otherwise for ASUS?
Settings:
Asus S56CM-XX079H 39,2 cm
Intel Core i5 3317U
Some GeForce 635m or so
Under Sata configuration I can see my discs:
ST500LM012 - 500GB HDD
Kingston SMS150S324G - 24GB SDD
// Puuuh..It just booted from the usb (boot-repair-disk), although I get a black-screen after I hit enter. Let's wait for the Linux Mint ISO.
BIOS Version: 2.12.1226
