Unable to boot or install Windows after new Motherboard.
Go to solution
Solved by Daymin,
Figured out how to fix it myself without having to reinstall or make a backup:
With the Windows Media Creation Tool on a USB-Stick access the Command Prompt in WinPE:
- Troubleshoot” > “Advanced options” > “Command Prompt”
And then input the following list of commands:
- “bcdboot D:\Windows /S D:" (replace D: with the drive volume your Windows is installed on)
- diskpart
- list disk
- select disk 0 (replace 0 with your boot drive
- list volume
- select volume 1 (replace 1 with the drive volume your Windows is installed on)
- active
After those inputs and a restart, I could boot into my original install without problems.
Here is a tutorial for MBR and GPT drives.
In my case, I had to change the drive letter designation of a secondary drive for all my folders and programs to work.
