Title: Z77X-UP4 TH
Post by: cdex28 on September 12, 2015, 11:36:54 pm
Hello,
        Have a Z77X-UP4 TH motherboard with 32MB. It's been running okay but now does not recognize any of my hard drives.
I get the message " No bootable device detected". If i go into the bios none of the hard drives can be seen on any of the 5 SATA ports, am currently running bios ver.F9.
Will appreciate any help and advice.

Greetings,
Can you please provide your full system specs, and let us know when this issue started?  Was the system ever stable with this config?  And for how long.

Did you make any recent changes, flash the BIOS and then start having problems?

Thanks for the reply. The machine has been working for the past 3 years without any problem, was working on Thursday night and just did a reboot then the message appeared. No changes had been made.
Specs Below
Z77X-UP4 TH motherboard, Intel i7 3.2ghz cpu, 32Gig Memory, GeForce GTX 750Ti, Crucial M550 SSD(1 TB) and 2 X Seagate 1TB hard drives. Windows 10 pro

Thanks

No changes, except a recent upgrade to windows 10.   :)

F9 was released in 2012.  How log ago did you flash to this rev?

I assume you are running single disks with Z77 Controller Operate Mode set > AHCI ?

Is the boot order correct?

Are other BIOS settings being retained, Date /Time, etc?

Have you tried CLR_CMOS or battery pull?  See page 26 of your manual, *disconnect power first

Are there any steps that will allow you to boot into the OS, or do you always get "No Boot Drive Detected after POST?

Sorry for all the questions.  ::)

I'll tell a little story. I have a friend that want windows 10 so bad he could taste it. Well I gave him everything he needed to upgrade. From that point of the upgrade he has had nothing but problem.

Here was a person just like you not having a problem for the past 2 yrs since I build him the computer with windows 7. Now that is all he is having is problems. I get calls 2 or 3 times a week with problems.

People you can do what they want. People please stop upgrading to windows 10 till they fix things. All windows 10 is windows 8/8.1 with a face makeover. Plus with a very bad one at that too.

I have windows 10 on my computer on a M2 drive. I really have to have it installed. I'm a Microsoft Partner and there is times I wish I wasn't. Why are the people jumping on it because they brought back the start menu. It is still windows 8/8.1 blue and true all the way.
