Guys, thank you so much for this video. I bought a refurbished Optiplex 3050 and straight out replaced and installed dual drives (nvme m.2 and 2.5 ssd) and boot up can't find either drives.

[@michaelzoran]

QUESTION: I have a Dell Optiplex 390. Whenever I select UEFI, it tells me there is no bootable device available. Also, "Advanced Boot Options" is not available in the BIOS. So, there is no way to take any checkmark out of the "Legacy" option. Is there a way to update those BIOS or fix that? Also, when I select "UEFI," there is nothing to select for "Booting." I have heard Windows is supposed to take care of that. And the computer comes back with a message saying it tried to do that "Automatically." The computer tells me to select an option in UEFI and save the settings. The problem is there is nothing to select.I am using Windows 10 Pro. Can you please help me out. Is there any way to make it so this Dell Optiplex with the LGA 1155 A00 Motherboard can use an SSD with GPT UEFI? Or does this computer have to remain in MBR Legacy mode?

[@EggheadFixers]

What happens when you run the diagnostic? Does it read the SSD as being there? Also does it pass the diagnostic? You may have to fix the setting then reinstall Windows. For Windows 10 to function properly it needs to be set on UEFI with secure boot on. As for the boot order Windows should do that automatically but in rare cases you may need to add your SSD as a boot option manually.

[@michaelzoran]

@@EggheadFixers I made sure the SSD was GPT when I cloned the MBR HDD. The PC "attempted" to load the UEFI features "Automatically" according to the computer. However, it would not work. I then selected the option to run the diagnostic. This was a UEFI type of graphic menu. The SSD and HDD were recognized, and so was the RAM and everything else. All of the features of the PC successfully passed the diagnostic test. Unfortunately, nothing would work. The SSD simply would not allow the SSD to boot up as long as the SSD was in GPT. As a result, I reformatted the SSD. I formatted it into MBR and cloned the HDD again. This time the SSD booted properly - but only in "Legacy" mode. Nothing would allow "UEFI" mode to be selected. The Dell Optiplex does not have the ability to choose "Advanced Options" or "Secure Boot" in the menu. You can choose "UEFI," but as a result of not having the ability to select "Advanced Options," you cannot select the option "Not" to run in "Legacy" mode. It seems as though the Dell Optiplex 390 with the LGA 1155 motherboard does not have the ability to boot a GPT HDD or SSD.

[@EggheadFixers]

@@michaelzoran Ya it may incompatible. Also I believe with GPT HDD you need it to be set on UEFI so if you can only boot in legacy that is most likely your problem. What operating system are you trying to install?

[@michaelzoran]

@@EggheadFixers Windows 10 Pro was cloned over to the SSD.

[@EggheadFixers]

​@@michaelzoran Ya if its Windows 10 Pro then it definitely needs to be set on UEFI.

I used legacy mode for years. Today, my PC just refused to boot: No boot device found, both SSD and HDD.

I have an older PC, do you have any tips for that? (Inspiron 15)

[@EggheadFixers]

Bios will most likely look different but if you run into any options not being there just skip to the next step. Some of the older models Dell are set up more simple so you may not have all the extra options. They are also easier to work on so you have that on your side. Let me know if you have any questions:)

first, thanks for the video, but after all of this and passing all test, my dell inspiron 13 7000 series still boots straight to support assist saying no boot devices found. Any insight on this?

[@EggheadFixers]

Sorry to hear that:( If you have already tried adjusting the settings in bios and it passed the test then you may need to reinstall the operating system. Sometimes Windows gets corrupt and you need to start from scratch with a fresh install of windows. Here is a video on how to do that: kzbin.info/www/bejne/inbPdH16l7CXgc0 You portion of the video that shows how to install a Hard Drive and just watch the second half on how to install windows.

After 'diagnostic' the result is 'msg: hard drive- not installed' what next, Miss? Help me, please.

[@EggheadFixers]

Sorry to hear that☹ First I would try what we call reseating the hard drive which means unplugging it and then plugging it back in. Then rerun the diagnostic. If that does not work then its most likely that you need a new hard drive. Sometimes when a hard drive really dies the motherboard doesn't read it as being installed.

I would check your Windows logs to see if it is recording an error at the time it’s giving you the problem. You can access your Windows logs by going into File Explorer, right-clicking on this PC, clicking on manage, expanding the folder Event Viewer, and expanding the folder Windows Logs. I would check applications and the system and look at the date and time to see if there are any errors logged for when you were having the no sound issue. You are looking for errors that have a red or yellow symbol next to them. If you see one that fits the right time. Click on it and you can google the Event ID and source for solutions to this error.

hello, i recently bought my dell inspiron 3650 used in november. in january, i started hearing squeaking noises coming from the pc. that was when i started getting errors that no hard drive was detected but then it continued to boot and work fine just a little slow. it started giving me boot loops that would last about 5 minutes saying it was diagnosing my pc and attempting repairs until eventually i couldnt boot it anymore. when it brought me to the automatic repair screen, i decided to reset it and remove all my files and i chose the option to reset if i was recycling the pc which i wasnt by accident. i finally took it apart and looked at the hard drive which i was 99% sure the problem was and i disconnected it and reconnected it but that didnt do anything so i took it back out and left it with my computer apart for a week or 2 just giving up on it. today, i decided to try one more time and i ran the diagnostic when you press F12 and it said everything was fine, including the hard drive. before that the bios said that there was no hard drive but after i did the diagnostic for 6 hours or so (the long one) i went back to bios and it showed my hard drive. this is where my problem is now... everything is functional according to the diagnostics i did. the hard drive is there and working. i still cannot boot up windows. it just brings me to the automatic repair screen and says that it didnt start correctly. please help. thank you

Usually when you have a black screen but it displays without a problem to a monitor, then it usually is an issue with the LCD (screen) or LCD cable. It can be a loose connection or that one of those two parts has gone bad. There are some rare cases where it's an issue with the port on the motherboard but that is very rare.

[@Mike-rf8ph]

hello, thank you for sharing helpful info. A quick question, I did a system restore to previous point and for some reason now my dell powers up but nothing shows on display even when i hit/hold F2. All i did was a system restore to previous point with no other changes .plz share your thoughts

[@EggheadFixers]

When you say nothing shows does it show the Dell logo and then it goes to a blank screen? Or does turn on and display nothing at all?

[@Mike-rf8ph]

@@EggheadFixers thank you for reply, i've actually fixed the problem. All was needed is switching monitor connection from HDMI to VGA, i had to do a full system restore after but thats ok

Battery problem for me after running the diagnostics. What is the best way to replace a battery on a Latitude 5289?

[@EggheadFixers]

On Dell.com/support you can look up the manual for this model and it will show you how to safely take it a part. I would do that first see if it's something you want to do yourself.

Hi, I have a dell studio 540 which I want to boot from a usb. That is not an option when I hit F12. Am I able to boot from a USB if not shown? Thanks, very helpful video!!!

[@EggheadFixers]

Sometimes you need to enable booting off of a USB in BIOS. Also I would try a different USB port.

[@evap.3439]

@@EggheadFixers Don't recall seeing anything in bios re USB. I'll explore and hopefully get it figured out. Thanks for the feedback ;-)

[@EggheadFixers]

[@the-papaw]

I've got one for you. I have a Dell 3420 Precision SFF. Booting from USB to Open Media Vault 6 (Linux NAS software). Using Legacy in the BIOS, it boots one time. If I re-boot or have power failure, it will not reboot again without going into the BIOS again, change a setting, and exiting. It will then boot. Until a re-boot or powerfailure. I am using wireless (usb dongled) keyboard and sometimes I could hit key when I got the "no boot device found error" and it would boot up without going into the BIOS. I decided to update the BIOS to latest and now wireless keyboard not recognized until after the BIOS??? I am curious if I flash back an older BIOS on it without messing it up. Wish I figure this out. It's a pain to have to go into the BIOS every time I need to reboot the thing

[@EggheadFixers]

Ya getting it to consistently boot off a USB can be tricky. Do you have the USB set first in the boot order? Are you making sure to save before exiting? Also are you getting any other errors like a date and time error?

[@the-papaw]

@@EggheadFixers Yes, set it to legacy and only boot from USB. No other errors and date and time are correct. I been fooling with computers since DOS and it has me stumped. Thank you for replying BTW. I just wondered if it is Dells custom BIOS causing some type of issue??

[@EggheadFixers]

@@the-papaw It could be. Often times you will see weird issue like this with Dells and booting off a USB. Do you have secure boot on or off? Secure Boot is designed to prevent malicious software from loading when your PC starts up. So there is a chance secure boot is causing issues with it

[@the-papaw]

@@EggheadFixers Secure boot is off. Doesn't make sense to me that simply going into the BIOS, make any simple change, apply it, then put it back exactly the same and apply and it boots, only the single time. Can you go backwards in flashing the BIOS files on these things, I have never tried it

[@EggheadFixers]

@@the-papaw It looks like you can downgrade BIOS to an older version pretty easy: www.dell.com/support/kbdoc/en-us/000130652/downgrading-the-system-bios-on-a-dell-system#:~:text=Dell%20has%20made%20downgrading%20the,procedure%20is%20not%20completed%20successfully.

Hello! Do you have any video about checking media fail in dell laptop? Thanks

[@EggheadFixers]

You should be able to use the same steps as you see in this video to fix that problem

[@peterlumagod4616]

Thank you so much. My laptop is now working your video is 100% likeable. Thank u so much

[@EggheadFixers]

You're welcome!! Happy to help:)

[@jamespyle5391]

The View Boot Option- center window File system list showing on your video is worded different than mine Inspiron 15 3580. Should it be the same as what you’re showing?

[@EggheadFixers]

It can vary from model to model so I wouldn't worry if its different. How did you computer do when you ran the diagnostic? Did everything pass?

[@ramahermawan4598]

I followed your steps halfway but it's already fixed. Thank you so much.

[@EggheadFixers]

Awesome!! Glad to hear it worked out:)

[@choudhrydaniyal432]

This helped, now it doesn't gives me that error, but i think it takes alot longer time to bootup than before, any leads on that?

[@EggheadFixers]

You may need to reset or reinstall the operating system. What happened when you run the diagnostic? Did the hard drive pass?

[@longnguyenhoang7766]

My savior I thought that i lost all my data but you are the one save me

[@EggheadFixers]

Glad we could help

[@aimibiggs7332]

Loved how you explained everything in detail. So my Dell error msg is no boot device found and cause maybe corrupted OS image. Now I did all of what was suggested in this video and everything looks good. I got everything checked green. NOW WHAT. I'm still not able to get to desktop. Please help if you can and thanks.

[@EggheadFixers]

Thanks:) If you ran the diagnostic and everything passed then the next step would be to reinstall the Operating System. Here is a video on how to do that: kzbin.info/www/bejne/inbPdH16l7CXgc0 You can skip the portion on replacing the hard drive. Let me know if you have any more questions:)

[@agoogleuser1753]

Tried the windows 10 settings in this video but it kept getting an error message for secure boot being enabled. So I went back to disabled it yet I'm still stuck with the Dell logo where it doesn't want to boot beyond that. Hard drive still reads fine as I'm able to pull up all filled when connected to another computer.

[@EggheadFixers]

Sorry to hear that:( If all that hardware passed the diagnostic then the next step would be to try reinstalling the operating system. Usually this problem is caused by a problem with operating system.
