  1. I'll get back to you as soon as possible. Been a bit busy of late. But would "mounting" the drive go through the process of deleting the files inside of it? What is the process like after I do type in: sudo mount /dev/nvmeOn1 in the terminal?
  2. Hello All, Long but interesting story: I saw that my machine was in a "hibernated' state and upon "waking up" my computer, I saw that it was in a Windows 10 update cycle ("Working on updates 30% completed"). Upon an automatic reboot done by the update, my machine received "Bootmgr is missing" and I was unable to boot into my OS. This is where I spent hours troubleshooting (booting from win10 CD, usb drive, attempting startup repair, attempting system restore, attempting to go back to previous build) pretty much every possible troubleshooting method I could find online but all failed, many using the link below (this isn't the only website i used, I used many many more) https://www.ghacks.net/2017/05/02/fixing-bootmgr-is-missing-error-in-windows/ I gave up and eventually decided to format my Intel m.2 NVME ssd where my OS was installed. So I booted into my win10 usb drive, went through the typical process of selecting the Windows default language, version, and when I got to the part to select the drive to install windows on, and I did not see my NVME ssd. I even tried installing my Intel NVME drivers onto a usb drive, successfully "installed" the driver... https://www.auslogics.com/en/articles/wp-content/uploads/2018/04/media-driver-issues.png ...But still no drive found. https://i.ytimg.com/vi/WyON2-wL2MY/hqdefault.jpg At this point I felt like I've tried everything. I can see the NVME ssd in my BIOS, messed with pretty much every single BIOS setting regarding NVME ssd's (UEFI settings, CSM settings, etc) but still no luck. What's interesting are these couple of pictures... 1. Before the windows setup process (upon booting Win10 from USB or DVD) I'm receiving this: https://i.ibb.co/jy7v1wm/before-WINDOWSsetup.jpg 2. During the process of selecting the driver to install for your drive I'm actually **seeing my files in my C drive** https://i.ibb.co/H2v3gg0/files-Seen.jpg 3. This got me thinking... I read a couple of more forum posts and eventually made a bootable Ubuntu v15.04 USB drive to troubleshoot further. I'm under Ubuntu's file system and see my NVME ssd: however upon clicking on it i see this error: https://i.ibb.co/4JX95VR/ubuntu.jpg So this really leaves me to believe that my drive is indeed recoverable. It seems like my NVME ssd is stuck in an "hibernation" state, stated above at the start of my post, which is why I'm receiving these error messages. At the beginning of my post, I mentioned that for some reason my computer was at a "hibernated" state upon the windows update cycle which is why I initially received "bootmgr is missing". The fact that you can see ALL of my files in the file path to install the drivers (Picture section 2.) definitely means that its recoverable, no? I feel like I'm very close to finally using my computer again. At this point I don't care to: 1. Format my drive and start fresh. 2. Somehow recover my files that I see and then format/ start fresh. 3. Somehow get my drive out of a "hibernation" state so it can finish it's windows 10 install and work like normal Any help would be much appreciated! Thanks.

  4. So whenever I update my graphics driver for my gtx 780 sc, my cpu will be at 100% load and instantly freeze on desktop after boot.I know it's specifically a driver issue because when I install my gpu, the default driver (390.65) everything works fine. But the second I manually download /install the driver from nvidias website OR when windows automatically updates the driver, the pc will crash.I'm not 100% sure if the cpu is at 100% load because when you open your task manager it will for a split second say 100% but the computer will crash and the last thing I saw was the cpu at 100%.I've recently wanted to update my gpu but I'm running into this problem. Im thinking this might be a compatibility issue, can't think of anything else. Also can't find the same issue on Google.I posted the same question on r/techsupport but not many replies. Take a look at what one person wrote...Reddit threadSpecs are :i5-7600kEvga Gtx 780 sc8gb ddr4 2400mhz ram500gb WD hdd
