  1. Update: Tried sudo lshw -c storage -c disk and the ssd was shown, so it isnt dead
  2. Nope, not recognized in linux... It still shows up in the bios, and is shown as unallocated space when i try to do a fresh windows install... What the hell is going on here?
  3. Will do, Ill update this thread once i try that.
  4. Not recognized via a sata to USB adapter on a different laptop, which made me think the controller was damaged but it wouldn't make sense because the BIOS still recognizes it
  5. No backups unfortunately(i know i know, rookie mistake) been using my recovery USB and media installation USB to no avail, don't have a DVD drive either Nope, its recognized in the bios but not in the windows reinstall or the troubleshooting command prompt. Thats whats baffling me
  6. Hey everyone, i've spent the last 3 days trying to figure this out and im just at a total loss, so i figured id ask around and see if i can get some answers. The Problem: I was out of the house this past weekend, when i left my Rig was working totally fine, I get back this past sunday and it goes right to the BIOS and wont boot, I start poking around and see that while my boot SSD is recognized in the storage config folder, its not a boot option. Fast forward to today and from what i know now it seems to be an issue with the boot file, specifically boot/bcd, and when i try bootbcd/rebuildbcd it tells me theres 0 active windows installations. ive tried to rebuild it manually, when i tried to do a fresh install of windows the drive is shown as "unallocated space", cant format it, cant make a new partition.Its also not recognized in the command prompt in the recovery USB. I have no idea where to go from here and could really use some help here. Ill link below the recent "fixes" i tried. Thanks for any help you can provide https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_8-system/boot-error-bootrec-unable-to-locate-windows/5982f7c0-3c51-46f7-b93e-138f83457b4a http://www.sevenforums.com/hardware-devices/176124-bcd-death-bcd-missing-bootrec-rebuild-fail.html http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows8_1-windows_install/total-identified-windows-installations-0/52359f87-de4a-41dc-b0c3-cc275e1d9fbf
  7. Not what i was looking for actually, I was asking if i could replace a coax cable that already went through the wall but was severed.
  8. Hey everyone, Ive been using power-line adapters for the last 6 or so months, with the top speeds being 40/12 via power-line (and 140/12 on WiFi, the salt is so strong), I found a coax input on my wall (painted over, nice touch huh?). After unscrewing it from the wall i discovered that whatever genius put it in decided to cut the cord in half after running it through the wall (it just keeps getting better). There's a wall panel near it so I was thinking id be able to access the cable through there and run a new one. Is that even possible/a good idea? all this would be done so i could get a coax to Ethernet adapter and have the connection im paying for. Any help is appreciated, thanks!
  9. Yea, The deadline was moved up because why not. Not like we need time for projects or anything... In any case, thank you so much for helping i really appreciate it
  10. Hey everyone! Things have changed a bit, if you could send me your amount of points gained by wednesday the 13th id appreciate it! Thanks for all your help
  11. No team switch required! just post a comment with your current amount of points, then in the 14th, edit the comment and add your new total, or just the amount you gained in that time
  12. For helping me out with the project, i appreciate it! (honestly didnt think i would get any response on this post)
  13. No worries man, every bit helps. What area of MN are you in? im in edina down in the cities. (Luckily i grew up in minneapolis, so no edina rich kid stereotypes here)
