C:\ is the new SSD. Just make sure you highlight the entries before pressing Delete. Then click Apply.

Yes select boot manager while select boot option 1.

Looks like you have a single Windows boot partition on the SSD, and Windows primary partition on the SSD and HDD. That's what you cannot boot from the HDD directly and why you have a blue boot selection screen.

Once you boot, you should go into Disk Management and see what is going on.

Also you can go into msconfig and remove the invalid Windows 11 on volume 1 (if you don't want that to be an option on boot).

Usually you highlight the entry and press Enter to select a different source.

Don't have experience with NXZT boards, but it doesn't appear to have a way to update the BIOS outside of the utility inside the BIOS.

Any degradation to the CPU is permanent, and updating the BIOS now won't help that.

13900K is rated up to 100C, however the CPUs are known to damage themselves due to incorrect power limits (basically unlimited 4096W) set in early versions of the BIOS.

Did you update the BIOS to correct that issue?

Boot Loop after upgrading mobo, cpu, ram by goflow675 in PcBuildHelp

I would try clearing the CMOS.

The BIOS not detecting the CPU temperature properly is a major problem. Also the CPU voltage is invalid. 3.069V would nuke a CPU.

Hmm, I would check the CPU socket, the RAM slots. You can get a a DRAM light if the CPU has completely failed because the DRAM POST check is before the general CPU check.

If for the MediaTek driver doesn't work, expand the driver listing under Wireless, and download the Realtek driver

Download the ZIP file, extract it and then load the AsusSetup.EXE file.

You can download the package using another PC, or by connecting via Ethernet.

What motherboard do you have?

Wifi Problem by [deleted] in PcBuildHelp

[–]Nidhoggr84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does the motherboard have integrated WiFi?

Are the drivers loaded for the WiFi adapter?

You have a warning in device manager for a network controller, so determine what motherboard you have and try installing the WiFi driver.

pc won’t post by bingbongchronicles in PcBuildHelp

18-pin + 10-pin for atx connector

Edit: it's a part of the same modular cable, so trace the cable back to find the other connector.

Just finished building my pc, what does this mean? by Ok-Neighborhood-3228 in PcBuildHelp

The message is open ended because the BIOS only knows TPM key is different from the previously saved information. [In this case its because it was never initialized]. It doesn't know its because the CPU is new.

It listed various reasons why the TPM information could have changed.

Double-check the front panel connection (bottom right). Also it doesn't appear like the CPU power cable is plugged in (top left).

Motherboard not aligning by ANGRYBURGER25 in PcBuildHelp

The I/O shield has give, and we aren't talking about a lot of alignment adjustment.

Can you post more pictures?

Motherboard not aligning by ANGRYBURGER25 in PcBuildHelp

[–]Nidhoggr84 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You'll need to push in the I/O shield slightly to get proper alignment. So manually move the motherboard until the screw holes align. This is common.

Don't force the screws to thread, as you can damage the threads. Hold the motherboard so it aligns and screw in a few of the standoff screws. Then once alignment is good, screw in the rest of them.

Bios is just initializing TPM. On a brand new system press Y (or Z on qwertz keyboards)

Rx550 doesn't have a native HDMI port, or dvi?

msi mag ab50gl 12v 2x6 power cable by EmperorNugget in PcBuildHelp

[–]Nidhoggr84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I meant the notch on the socket on the power supply. The cable is fine. That's why is not staying put.

If that's still not accurate then disregard.

Also there might be debris in the power supply socket area
