Hi all,
I reinstalled my operating system the other day. While i was doing this i deleted all partitions on both the SSD and the normal hard drive. I then installed my OS to the normal hard drive.
Now when i boot up the laptopr or restart it, as it turns on after the acer logo i get a message saying it could not find a boot drive. So i have to hold down the power button for a couple of seconds. After holding it down the laptop powers off and back on imidiatly and this time boots up to windows like normal.
I have to do this every time i restart or turn on the laptop. I have been in to the bios and tried to change the boot order to the hard drive but it seems to make no differance. It alsways seem to look for the Windows Boot Manager on the SSD, buts its not their.
The reasion i have installed this way is due to not having enought space on my SSD to install all my windows programs, so i would prefer to use to normal hard drive for my os and software and have my SSD for some of my favorite games.
Also as a test, i reinstalled the laptop and did the same. deleted all my partitions on both the SSD and the normal hard drive. But this time i picked the SSD for the OS and everything worked as normal again. But as i said the SSD dose not have enough space for my needs. So after the test i did the same again but whent back to using the noraml hard drive for my OS.
The booting issue came back stright way.
Please can anyone help.
