Hi,
I have a weird situation:
Asus Maximus IV board with SSD / HDD windows 8.1 boot disk attached on intel SATA. Other boot disk with Windows 7. I cloned the SSD to a HDD.
After going into hibernate / sleep, on restart it hangs at posting the SSD in UEFI, just a black screen, HDDs are not recognized. Im booting via legacy BIOS, not UEFI. If I detach the win8 SSD and boot from another HDD into Windows 7, it boots fine.
If I attach the win8 SSD to a different PC, it boots fine. checked with pated magic and SSD and HDD are fully intact...
First I thought it is the SSD sleep/frozen issue and bought a HDD and cloned the working SSD image to the HDD.
Now I have the same error on the HDD, after shutting off the PC with HDD and power on, it hangs at boot, so it must be something on the disk in the boot partition that prevents my disks from posting in bios.
Would anyone have any clue how to fix this without a complete reinstall ?
best regards
