@bobbrom1961, Welcome to the HP Support Community!  

  

Thanks for reaching out about your query regarding USB Recovery Boot Issues! 

We're thrilled to have the opportunity to assist you and provide a solution.  

  

If your USB recovery disk is not booting and other boot disks can’t see your SSD drive, it might be due to a driver issue. Here are the steps to troubleshoot and resolve this problem:

 

Update BIOS: Ensure that your BIOS is up to date. To update your BIOS, follow these steps:

  • Type support in the taskbar search box and select the HP Support Assistant app.
  • Select Updates, and then select Check for updates and messages.
  • Follow the on-screen instructions to download and install the latest BIOS update.

Download and Install SSD Drivers:

  • Visit the HP Support website.
  • Enter your product name or number.
  • Locate the drivers section and download the latest SSD drivers.

Create HP Recovery Media:

  • Make sure your USB flash drive is of high quality and meets the required storage capacity.
  • You can use the HP Cloud Recovery Download Tool to create HP Recovery media.
    • Go to the Microsoft Store and search for HP Cloud Recovery.
    • Follow the instructions to create a bootable USB.

Change Boot Order:

  • Insert the HP Recovery media.
  • Restart the computer and quickly press esc, then press f9 for boot options.
  • Select the USB flash drive as the boot device.

Windows Recovery Options:

  • If you have already created recovery media and it doesn’t work, consider using the Windows recovery options by pressing f11 during boot.
  • Select Troubleshoot and then Recovery Manager.  

 

Hope this helps! 

Take care, and have an amazing day!
