Woke up this morning to my pc not being able to boot to windows, so I went to my Bios and the SSD isn't one of the boot options which means it's not working as intended. Each time I boot, I'm brought to Automatic Repair, and eventually it'll say that it can't repair my problem and it gives me: Log file: E:\Windows\System32\Logfiles\Srt\SrtTrail.txt .. I've looked around on Google for fixes and some said to go into the cmd prompt in the automatic repair screen and to type in things like "chkdsk /r c:" and "bootrec.exe /rebuildbcd, bootrec.exe /fixmbr, bootrec.exe /fixboot". I did those, still nothing. So I decided to go into my computer case and replaced the SATA cable that my SSD was using with a fresh, never used cable and it still didn't fix my problem. Just last night my pc was working fine, had no fps issues in my games, no issues whatsoever. I'm suspecting the SSD itself is the culprit for my problem and it needs to be replaced. I may try installing Windows onto one of my 1tb hard drives to see if I can actually use my computer.. but yeah. Pls help.

I'll check around, but I think the SSD is actually connected fine with my pc because when I use "chkdsk /r C:" in the command prompt it tells me all the information about my SSD like how much memory it has available.. etc. I think I'm going to go buy a new SSD and test it out once I get home.
