Okay I know this is old, but I'm having the same issue as well but I found a thread here explaining what you need to do. To sum it up, you have to update the bios in recovery mode (with the Jumper) to 0048, then if you want to update it any further, you can use the F7 method https://forums.tomshardware.com/threads/how-do-i-update-bios-on-intel-dh61ww.3542293/

Hi guys, I’ve been planning to build my second computer for a couple months now and was trying to find tutorials on how to model a PC build using Blender, SolidWorks, or any other software, as I’m planning on building a dark purple-pink themed “outer space” theme build (similar to Nebula, Jayztwocents’ personal build). I've got a parts list in mind but was hoping I could create a mock-up before actually buying any parts to see how things turned out, and make any necessary modifications. If anyone knows where I can find some videos, forums, or other information, or even have parts suggestions to match my theme that would we awesome. Thanks

Mainly for CPU intensive games like KSP, Cities Skylines etc, and also School work (Solidworks, VMware, and may need to potentially run simulations and emulations in the future). Will be upgrading my ~5 year old PC, but will be reusing the parts that are marked as purchased. Budget is $2300 CAD. I'm not the kind of guy who is constantly using the full potential of my computer, but similar to my current build right now (Build ~5 years ago with a stock 4790k, and have only upgraded the gpu from an R9 380 to a 1070), I'd like my new build to last quite some time. Honestly a big factor in why I am upgrading is because I would like to re purpose my current build as a Home Server.

Hey guys! So due to budget constraints I can either choose between a Ryzen 7 3800x w/ X570 Aorus Elite, or Ryzen 9 3900x w/ MSI B450 Tomahawk Max. I'm leaning more on the Ryzen 9, but wasn't sure what my mileage would be with the board. Any help / suggestions are greatly appreciated!

TLDR: tried to remove the assigned drive letter of a system reserve partition on a windows 7 install and wiped out the entire windows partition, which is now a RAW partition, looking for any way to be able to make the disk bootable again and regain the data. So just last night, I wanted to help my mother make her computer faster by installing Windows 10 on an SSD, as her computer had a hard drive and was running windows 7. During the setup, I messed up and accidentally formatted the system reserve partition of the windows 7 partition on her old drive instead of the new SSD. This made her windows 7 install unbootable. I then went ahead and repaired it by copying boot files from a windows 7 install disk And successfully made the disk bootable again, but under file explorer, the system reserve partition was now visible as a drive with a dedicated drive letter. Not wanting my mother to get confused and mess up the system reserve partition, I went into disk management and removed the drive letter of the partition in the hopes that it would disappear from windows explorer, but this caused the entire bootable partition of windows 7 with all her data into a RAW partition. (When I boot into windows 10 from the SSD and open disk management, the disk with the windows 7 install has 2 partitions, one healthy system reserve partition of 100MB in FAT32 and another partition with the rest of the drive being RAW. When trying to boot to the disk, I’m greeted with the words “MSDOS” wth some random letters and characters in between the letters (so something along the lines of ?MS?DOS$~) in the top left corner on a black screen. Is there any way to recover the data and make the disk bootable again? Some things to note: - System specs: i3-2100, 2GB Ram, 80GB drive (the drive wth the windows 7 partition) - The drive is SATA setup with IDE and not AHCI, mbr - I can no longer access the data or even see it when booting from another disk - The new SSD And Windows 10 install is setup with a gpt efi partition If anyone knows how I can recover this drive, it would mean the world to my mother and me so we really would appreciate any help! Thanks
