ASRock Z68 Pro3 mobo.
Win 8.1 installed on a 2GB spinner. After initial setup, Intel RST installed and set up with a 64GB SSD as cache.
After noticing that I was pegging the 8GB of RAM and the page file was being used heavily, I wanted to use a 128GB SSD, so that I could use 64GB for RST cache and the remainder for the page file.
I disabled the acceleration through the windows app (I use Enhanced, not Maximized, so there was no buffer to flush), shut down, switched drives, and went to boot direct to the 2GB, and was told that the drive is not bootable.
Can't do a system repair or a system refresh, for reasons that the UI didn't divulge.
Before I try to do a restore from image, is there anything else I should attempt? Some sort of command line steps to make the drive bootable again?
And would a restore from image even work since the drive is no longer bootable?
