M.2 and Mechanical Drives No Longer Showing In BIOS Or Windows Setup

[helloimmatt26]

Hello everyone,

I recently did a bios update on my B450-F build, I have 2 M.2 drives installed and a mechancial drive no longer showing. I really miss my PC and I have been trying to figure it out for a month and would really love and appreciate some help. My specs are in my profile. Thank you!

Hi Matt 🙂

If your Bios does not detect your Storage devices then go here: https://www.drivereasy.com/knowledge/fixed-bios-not-detecting-ssd-in-computer/
It may just be the recent Bios update set back to default and needs changes. What happens if you revert back to previous Bios.

Thanks for the reply! Really do appreciate your help! I was able to troubleshoot my hardware and everything is in working order, i was unable to complete step 2 since I do not see an option in the SATA configuration to change to IDE, I went back to bios 3003 but still no luck

Go to your Boot Menu options in Bios and check you have enabled CSM (Compatibility Support Module) page 3-19 in your manual.
Also check in boot devices control and that devices are configured correctly. Oh and leave fast boot disabled for now.

If your still having issues then disconnect all other storage devices and just have the storage drive that has your windows installation to boot from.
report back.
