HI everyone ... i'm having a problem with my Lenovo Ideapad Y500 ... so here's the issue:
Yesterday i installed a Crucial M500 240GB mSata SSD into my laptop and all went well ... i was able to install windows 8.1 on my msata with no hassle but then the problem started when i decided to format my 1TB hard drive that i thought i no longer needed since i had installed windows 8 on my SSD ... so i completly wiped my hard drive ... removing every partitions there was on it using diskpart ... and i formatted it into MBR format. Now when i tried booting up my system today it popped me a "no bootable device" error ... when i go into the BIOs i can see my 2 disks in the information tab of the BIOS but when i go into the boot option, i see no option other than ipv4. I checked my SSD using windows 8 install (went up to the step you choose where to install) and i saw that my SSD had a MBR and a GPT partition. I tried re-installing windows on my 1TB hard drive but it told me it couldn't be done since it was a MBR format and it needed to be GPT ... I'm really out of ideas i tried searching on the web but was out of luck. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
