There is one thing missing from this video. ASUS has done a rather dumb thing! My son just installed an ASUS TUF Gaming Z690-Plus WiFi D4 ATX Gaming Motherboard (with Intel core I7 12 Gen). Everything installed ok, except the BIOS could no longer see a "Boot Device". (We panicked!) To cut a long story short, we discovered a setting called "Compatibility Service Module". This option is defaulted to "Off", which tells BIOS to look for a boot device that's on a M2 drive. So, if you run into the above issue after installing a new MB and your boot device is a standard SSD / Hard drive you MUST change this setting. (Why the bios is not smart enough to check all drives for a boot sector is baffling to me).

I want to thank you for your help/video. I changed the boot settings to legacy only and it worked. Thanks so much! I had replaced the motherboard, ram, hard drive, etc.... Just a few months ago so I didn't understand how it could give me the error, no bootable drives. We lose power frequently here in Puerto Rico so I attributed it to that. Recently when I turn on my computer I've been getting messages that Windows is fixing my PC and it takes sometimes up to 30 minutes before it's done. It did that yesterday before it booted into the BIOS. Initially it showed the two hard drives that I have installed with a warning that drive failure was imminent. It told me to back up my work but I couldn't do it because it wouldn't boot into windows. Next time I booted it didn't show the drives on the boot menu. But they still showed up as storage devices. Your video saved me from buying a new hard drive. Thank you so much

[@RJ-lf8ex]

You have an amazing talent of instruction - so easy to follow and you never waver from your passion. I hope you make boatloads of cash from your instructional vids. You saved my laptop yesterday! Get this ... I had to do TWO of your tips. First - I reseated the hard drive. That allowed me to boot in (I had kept getting the dang Reboot/removable media device message) but then it froze again after about 3 minutes. So, I hit F2 and got into the BIOS and set the UEFI Boot to DISABLED (I left the second option untouched). Voilà! I proceeded to use my laptop for 5 hours, with several reboots, and it ran like a charm. And it ran beautifully this morning for an hour. Thank you! No need to reply but I am awfully curious, why did I need to do the second tweak? What does that tell the OS to do? Obviously, it's a big tweak behind the scenes, but why did I have to do it and why did it fix the issue? What 'happened' to my hardware that forced me to do that? Thanks again!

[@PC_Monkey]

Glad your all set :) Most likely there was a power loss to BIOS which caused those settings to be reset / changed. That prevented BIOS from starting up normally and so prevented the operating system from doing the same. Not a big deal unless it happens again and again :)

Hi. In case anyone is having the same issues, and the above didn't help. You got me on the right track. I have that fancy ASUS BIOS interface. none of the above worked for me. Just because I had nothing to lose, I disabled 'Fast Boot' (same screen as CSM setting). For some reason, it worked. I enabled again and same issue as before. So now it's staying at disabled. I'm now at Windows. Windows immediately began 'Configuring Updates' (oh boy). All of my windows color settings etc were gone. I had to set them up again. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. Don't know why that setting worked.

Thanks dude, just built a pc and I used an m.2 boot drive from my old one and it wasn’t working. Enabling csm did the trick.

I had a proble 3 days ago: I stopped my laptop (asus notebook pc model x540l) everything was normal but after like 30 minutes i started it again and freezed exactly at the logo on the minute 1:40 in youre video I did what u sayd with the Bios I had CSM and i desabled it i saved and quit i restarted the laptop and it worked. I hoped it will be fine from now but this morning when I wanted to open it again he frezed again and I entered again on that boot settings and CSM was still disabled i enabled it and disabled it and i saved and quit and restarted. Now it's working but if I have to do this stuff over and over again it's not nice. I am sorry for my writing English is not my native language.

[@antonioktms3848]

Yeah I noticed that every time I close it and then I try to open it he is freezing at the logo

[@PC_Monkey]

@@antonioktms3848 Your English is fine :) So every time you try and start the computer, you have to change those BIOS settings? Its not saving each time? That could mean that BIOS keeps resetting every time you power down. Try replacing the CMOS battery. You can see how to locate that component here; kzbin.info/www/bejne/bWesY3iZbrBqotk

[@krylocskrazeplay]

Thank you so much. This fixed my system I had to change my CSM to legacy only. Question. now that my system boots from windows. should I change it back to UEFI? will it automatically change back?

[@PC_Monkey]

No, it should stay on the setting where Windows works. Most likely, that was the setting its always been on. Most likely there was an error or power loss in BIOS that caused the setting to reset / change. You have most likely just changed it back to what it should have been :)

[@stanleymontreuiljean3203]

Thanks a lot for that. I had been struggling for so long but now I fix it

I don't know if you'll get to answer this but it doesn't hurt to try :'). I have an Asus ROG and I have been 4 days trying to fix it nonstop (awesome Christmas), first it had the "Automatic Repair/Diagnosing your PC" loop, but I solved it reinstalling Windows from a USB (and lost all my data :D). So I started working on the laptop again left it on in the night and next morning it was off. I turned it on again and it booted to Bios, there it didn't show boot options at all, they were just empty. I tried enabling CSM, Legacy and inserting the USB again to install windows. It booted into the installation program but I can't proceed because it says that it can't be installed in my actual partition and won't let me create a new one. I don't even know what's happening anymore a a a

[@PC_Monkey]

Your hard drive may be failing if you cant even install Windows anymore. I would try replacing the drive and installing the OS to the new one. May be a good chance to upgrade it anyway :)

[@aki_sin0x]

@@PC_Monkey Thanks a lot for answering. I guess I'll get a new drive then :'c
