I have a huge problem:
BOOTMGR is Missing
So I put a win7 recovery on a flash drive, and when I turned on my computer, my monitor was in Power Save mode and my keyboard and mouse don't work (no lights on either).
So I decided to clean up the dust that builds up in my case, due to having the side-panel off for a long time. I removed a huge wall of dust in-between my radiator and fan, from the push/pull setup. I also removed a huge ring of dust from my GPU fan area. I continue to turn on my computer, and it starts up normally... but my screen freezes at random times. As in, once it freezes.. I can't do anything... I must press the power button, and when my computer restarts there is a 85% chance it will have my monitor go in to power save and I get no power to my peripherals (my monitor gets power, but doesn't work). And when my computer does start up normal, it freezes up!
Any ideas???
I have an SSD (OS + a game) + SSD (game) + HDD (media). So the OS is on one SSD, and I have a question.
I see four red SATA ports, and lets say I just want to boot up with my SSD (with the OS). Where do I put it? There is two at the top, and two just beneath it. I have no clue if it matters where it goes, but I don't have my manual nor do I feel like removing my motherboard to see which one is the right SATA port and I think the other two are SATA1. Just give me an idea of where it should be, the Top two, or bottom two slots. Also let me know how I can fix my issue. In addition, if I press the CMOS button - what does it do? Does my BIOS Version get reset to it's factory one that it was packaged with?
Furthermore, I have win 7 as a DVD setup, but I want it on my 8GB flash drive.. how do I do it, so I can make it bootable on my flash drive/thumb drive?
Thanks in advance!
