I have a Dell Lattitude E6420 running Windows 7, it has an SSD and an HDD. I typically run it such that I boot from the SSD and use the HDD for storage. I recently dismantled my laptop in an effort to re-seat the speaker cables and when I reassembled it, my system is failing to boot to my SSD. I believe the primary contributing factor to be when I accidentally disconnected the button cell battery (it was disconnected for quite a while).
Upon startup, my system will (what I believe) try to boot to the SSD but runs into some kind of error. It freezes on the "Starting Windows" screen and forwards me to the "Windows Error Recovery; Windows failed to start" screen. I am able to access all the usual startup repair systems (BIOS, startup repair, boot with safe mode, etc.).
I am also able to boot to the HDD and view my old desktop and can access all files fine via a legacy boot. I have attempted to adjust the boot sequence in the BIOS to no avail.
How can I adjust my settings so that I successfully boot to my SSD?
