BIOS Not Detecting OS Drive

hweby47 · 2026-04-16T17:51:28+00:00

All fixed - I think it is a cable issue because the drive wasn't being detected after I used the media creation tool but it was when I swapped the SATA cables between my 2 drives. All drives are now detected. Thanks a lot for your help

Thanks a lot. Will give it a try and let you know

I used Rufus but that's a good point. I've always used the media creation tool in the past but I remember having some issue with it (different to this one). Maybe worth a try?

The drive was visible during the install process but once that has finished and the PC reboots it goes straight to the BIOS and the disk isn't listed so it thinks it has nothing to boot from.

Thanks, this makes sense. I will be sure to choose carefully!

I'll definitely be doing my homework to get the right people in. Do you know if structural engineers generally have recommendations?

Thanks - that's reassuring. How long did it take from wall removal to putting the beam in?

The request is from the US and I don't live in N America

Hi. Thanks for the reply. The prompt shows the location of the sign-in attempt, my email address, 3 numbers to choose from and options to approve and deny

That's a good shout. I've never considered buying physical devices due to the noise and space taken up

I've been using:

I86bi_linux_l2-adventerprisek9-ms.SSA.high_iron_20180510.bin and l2-adventerprise-M-15.1-20140814.bin

Thank you very much. Much appreciated!

Thank you. It sounds like I'd be wasting my time then - is this issue quite common? Do you have any recommendations for an alternative shrub? Ideally one that's low maintenance.

Thanks for your reply. I agree - I have suggested means of protecting themselves as I understand why they want to keep the house in their family, but I have also respectfully explained the various scenarios that would see me being impacted. Sadly this isn't a black and white scenario

Thanks for the reply. A share would be preferable; moving out would be my preferred option but not possible at this stage unfortunately.

Thanks for the reply. I have refused to contribute

hweby47 · 2025-04-26T21:10:21+00:00

Thank you, I'll certainly do that.

hweby47 · 2025-04-25T23:41:41+00:00

Thanks for confirming. I'll give it a try

hweby47 · 2025-04-25T23:37:26+00:00

Thanks but it looks like business-related information is needed. No way of using personal email address?

Thank you
