  1. I wish you'd said that half an hour ago. I gave up on waiting and just installed to another disk. I'll just clone from it when I'm done and do it from a windows environment. I'm writing down all of this anyway so I can default back to your advice. Thank you still.
  2. Not anything I can't replace. My windows install media won't show it even exists so I'm under the impression I'll need a more reliable bootable disk manager.
  3. Results attached. Disk 4 is the m.2 in question. Disk 5 is probably my Windows installation media.
  4. I previously had Windows 10 running on my M.2 no issues. I goofed my BIOS and reset it. After which, all attempts to boot spit out error 0xc000000e Looked up the error and the common solutions of "bootrec /fixbcd" and subsequent instructions did not help as it reported no such file was found. Windows auto repair did not help either. I would simply format and reinstall but the Windows Setup reportedly does not see the M.2 drive to even try to format it. Any suggestions? I can beat some other suggested lines against the command console or I can load necessary bootable drive managers to usb as needed.
  5. Wrong section. Please ignore or delete. Will repost in appropriate section

  7. Thank you very much. I appreciate it. I'll hunt down a cmos reset I probably still have in the box. MSI is pretty good about including one with mobos.
  8. That would work if my inputs weren't being ignored. I looked that up and already have this info. That's why I'm here. No external devices (keyboards, mice, etc) are recognize or even powered while in this state. Changing ports does not change this either.
  9. So messing around with some settings. I've had fast boot on with no issues. Booting from an M.2 drive. I switched it to "Msi Fast Boot" and now it's not recognizing any boot device or input device. I know I can just preform a bios reset but my disabilities make that considerably harder to get to. Any other options anybody else might know of?
  10. I greatly appreciate the feedback. I've loaded memtest86 onto a bootable USB but the desktop refuses to boot to it and instead goes directly to Windows 10. Additionally some experimenting I've done. No matter what it won't go above 50% memory usage. I've taken out memory down to 12gb, 8gb, and even down to 4gb and each time running some stuff to stress test, it will have errors and close anything that risks it going above 50% usage of whatever is available.
  11. So a couple days ago after starting up for the day I noticed something odd pretty quick. I'm someone who thoroughly enjoys 16GB of RAM and suddenly I'm getting memory usage errors and programs closing down on me or just freezing up all the time. General experience is slower. I thought no big deal and restarted. Issue persists. A bit more investigating and I discover errors only occur at ~47% memory usage. Worst case scenario in my mind, two of my RAM slots just up and decided to stop working from now on. CPU: i5-3570K @3.4GHz MOBA: ASRock Z77 Extreme4 GPU: GTX 690 RAM: Corsair vengeance 4x4GB dual-channel DDR3 @ 666MHz

  13. Turns out this was the issue. There is an option right clicking on the desktop "active desktop" and the option "Show desktop icons" was unchecked. I didn't even think this was an option I would fine actually on the desktop like this. Thank you very much.
  14. Okay. So fixing a machine for a family member. Old machine built in 1996, original hard drive, still works. It hasn't touched the internet in almost a decade, used almost daily. My grandfather keeps it as a machine for holding onto tax records and information in general on Word 2003. The problem is that on startup the icons on the desktop don't show up at all, can't select them either. When I go into the file explorer I can get back to the desktop folder and everything that should be there is there, but the actual desktop icons aren't on the desktop. I've haven't messed around with Windows 2000 probably sense I was 6, no idea if this is an option hidden somewhere. Thanks.
