Machine boots, rEFInd menu appears with Windows and Ubuntu options.On my machine, getting into Windows 10 went like this: so you need to go through your first boot loader again. If you choose the non-default Windows installation the Windows boot manager reboots the machine before launching the selected operating system.
If you're using a third-party boot manager like Grub or rEFInd it's less than ideal because it becomes a two-step process - first you need to choose Windows Boot Manager and then from the Windows boot manager choose which version of Windows.īut wait, it's even worse than that.
This works fine if you're only running Windows. If you read this: you will see that apparently it is standard for GPT formatted drives to have a "Windows Boot Manager ( drive_name)" as your primary boot option, as it is now a UEFI boot, rather than a BiOS boot.When you install multiple copies of Windows on machine, Windows updates it's boot manager configuration so that at boot time you can choose which version you want to run. UPDATE: Turns out it is due to the fact that when I reformatted my drive before the new windows install, I formatted it to GPT (UEFI boot) partition, instead MBR. If I set the option that does NOT say WBM before ADATA SX8200, I get the black screen that says "Please insert boot media and hit any key" and it never finds the boot media.ĭid the install create a partition somewhere on the drive that caused this? And if so, how do I find out and/or can I format that partition without losing the ability to boot completely? In BiOS, my PC will only boot with the following option:īoot Option 1: Windows Boot Manager (ADATA SX8200 SSD) Recently did a fresh install of Windows 10 圆4 on my ADATA SX8200 Pro NVMe M.2 and having a weird boot issue. This may be more windows related than gigabyte, but I'm asking here cause I'm on an X570 Aorus Master and am unfamiliar with the BiOS.
