Hi All,
I recently upgraded my drive to an ssd but can't get it to boot.
I tried installing windows, cloning the hard drive, enabling/disabling legacy support. Nothing works.
I get the error message 3f0: boot drive not found.
Anyone have any experience on how to better navigate this?
Yours,
Dillon

@Dill2 Welcome to HP Forums Community!
I suggest you follow the below steps to resolve the issue:
Step 1: Perform a hard reset
A hard or forced reset erases all information in the computer memory. This forces the system to clear and reestablish the software connections between the BIOS and the hardware: Click here for steps.
Step 2: Restore BIOS default settings
To restore the BIOS default setting, open the BIOS Setup screen.
-
Turn off the computer and wait five seconds.
-
Press the Power button to start the computer and repeatedly press the F10 key to enter the BIOS setup menu.
-
On the BIOS Setup screen, press F9 to select and load the BIOS Setup Default settings.
-
Press F10 to Save and Exit.
-
Use the arrow keys to select Yes, then press Enter when asked Exit Saving Changes?
-
Follow the prompts to restart your computer.
If the error message displays proceed to the next step.
