So after I added a 860 evo 500gb to my system I tested the drive for any errors, I have placed files on it and it all worked fine. After that I decided to install my windows on that SSD from an USB and after the install and everytime when I boot it up using my SSD where the new windows is installed one I get the message Reboot and select proper boot device...
CPU: i7 4790k 4.0ghz
RAM: 16GB
GPU: MSI GTX 1080 8GB
SSD: Samsung 860 evo 500GB
MOBO: Gigabyte B85-HD3
Things that I have tried:
Using different sata cables/ports
Using different power cables
Reinstalling windows on the ssd
Formating everything on the drive
Bootrec /fixmbr which prompts me "A device attached to the system is not functioning."
Bootrec /fixboot which prompts me "Access denied"
Used diskpart commands like clean, create partition, active etc.
Bootrec.exe /scanos which prompts me "succesfully scanned windows installations. Total identified windows installations: 0..."
Bootrec.exe /rebuildbcd which prompts me the same result as /scanos.
Chkdsk and sfc scannow which didnt show any bad sectors
Setting boot priority to the SSD
Bios boot settings:
Windows 8 features: Other os
Boot mode selection: eufi and legacy mode
Storage boot option control: legacy first (have tried legacy only and eufi only too)
Fast boot: disabled
I am clueless here to what the cause/fix may be, anything is very appreciated. Thanks for reading.
