My PC started receiving "Reboot and Select Proper Boot Device" on boot this morning. I have 128gb SSD boot drive that has worked fine for the past 2 years with windows 7.
I have tried startup repair (no problems were found), clearing CMOS, unplugging everything and plugging them back in, changing boot order in the BIOS, and switching monitor outputs.
My motherboard has the post code AE and I am receiving an error that says "This version of System Recovery is not compatible with the version of Windows you are trying to repair. Try using a recovery disc that is compatible with this version of Windows" when using System Recovery from a Windows 7 Installation Disc.
System Specs:
CPU: AMD FX 8320
Motherboard: Asus ROG Crosshair V Formula Z
PSU: Corsair 850 Watt Gold PSU
Video Card: EVGA GTX 980
RAM: 12 GB
Storage: 128 GB SSD (this is where OS and drivers are)
1 TB HDD (disconnected for troubleshooting)
1 500 GB HDD (disconnected for troubleshooting)
Thanks in Advance.
UPDATE: I changed the boot order for the disc and the ssd and that fixed the "This Version of System Recovery Options in not compatible" issue, but I am still unable to fix the "select a proper boot device" issue.
I have tried to make the boot disk's partition with the Windows Installation active through the command prompt but keep receiving "The selected disk is not a fixed MBR disk. The ACTIVE command can only be used on fixed MBR disks.
I can see the windows files and other drivers when I load drivers through the System Recovery Options.
