New build, "Insert Boot device" error

post #1 of 4
Thread Starter 
Yeah so I just built a new rig.

Motherboard: ASrock extreme 4
CPU: Intel i5 3570 ivybridge.
8gb corsair ram
gtx 560ti
corsair 650w PSU

SSD Corsair 120g Force
HDD WD caviar black 1TB.

Essentially, I set up my whole rig, with the SSD as main boot drive and the WD for storage. I installed Win 7, updated drivers etc. ( On Win 7, it didn't detect the WD drive, so I'm pretty sure I installed on my SSD).


Then, I needed to RMA my WD drive so now I just have the SSD drive in there, and it won't let me boot anymore. I get the above error. I'm 99% sure I installed my Win 7 on the SSD.

Is your current boot device your SSD?

Otherwise, did you install W7 with both SSD and HDD attached? If so, W7 puts some files on the HDD for some reason.... you can try a Windows repair if you have the disk
Once again...

Hmm yeah, unwrapped HDD and it looks like it did put files on the HDD for some reason.
