Hi guys,
I posted this question in another section of the forums, but haven't received a solution, so I will try here before I call it quits.
I just finished my first pc build today. I bought an SSD so that I could run my OS on it. Managed to get through the installation process fairly easily, and I'm positive I have it on the SSD and that the SSD is the 1st in the boot priority tab in the BIOS. I installed some drivers and what not. I had to restart the pc a few times to finish installing the drivers, and each time, the OS booted up perfectly.
Next was to verify that my overclocking was stable. I ran prime 95 for no more than 20min just to test it out. I decided I wanted to go back into the BIOS to change something. I restarted the PC, this time all I got was a black screen with A2 in the right bottom corner. Did some reading on here and figured that I should unplug the storage devices. Booted the pc up and then got into the BIOS (didn't change anything though), turned it off, and plugged the storage devices back in. This time it said "Reboot and select proper Boot device or insert Boot media in selected Boot device and press a key".
After hours of checking the boot priorities, checking the cables, and plugging the SSD in and taking it out, I still have nothing. I should also mention that the SSD is being recognized when I'm in the BIOS.
If anyone has any solutions it'd be much appreciated, thanks!
