@okokokok:
Before you try to flash the modded BIOS, it may be a good idea to attach it here. Then I will check, whether the modification has been well done or not.

@okokokok:
Your modded BIOS seems to be fine (is absolutely identical with the one I had modded some minutes ago).
Good luck for the flashing procedure!

Hi guys. There is a problem - on the motherboard
Gigabyte GA-H97-D3H (with M2 NVMe native support)
categorically not seen as boot M2.SSD disk
Toshiba KBG30ZMV256G

Both from under the 10th Windows and from its installer, the disk is perfectly visible, the Windows is even installed, but it is not loaded (the disk is not defined as boot, it does not appear in the boot options in the BIOS).
By itself, the drive is healthy, on another PC, more recent, it works as a bootable one, and the motherboard - with another M2.SSD, it worked like a bootable one.

Can you please tell me if the modification of UEFI according to the methodology from the branch ( adding NvmExpressDxe_4 to the UEFI) can somehow help in this case, or is there an incompatibility here?

Thanks in advance!

Yes, I completely turned off the HDD, tried different settings in BIOS, it does not help.
On the previous M2.SSD, which I had before, nothing of this was required, immediately by default it worked as a boot.

So strange..., but i'm not the master here, just a newbie.

Did u installed Win 10 on GPT or MBR tableform?
Tryed enabling & disabling CSM Support & Legacy?
In case u've tryed this, dicn't u see Pata/ SS Pata boot option?
Which way is shown the NVMe in the other PC?, Windows Boot Manager, or...?

Did you turn secure boot off before you installed W10 on the drive?

Welcome to the Win-RAID Forum!

Zitat von Oren im Beitrag #5494
Windows is even installed, but it is not loaded

What does that mean? Were you able to get Win10 and the EFI boot partition installed onto the NVMe SSD?
Did you remove your previously used system drive before you started the OS installation onto the NVMe SSD?

Is there not even an entry "Windows Boot Manager"?

I was thinkin' about that, the boot region (WBM) could be located in other drive.

I did notice on my install, that in the Windows folder there was another folder called Boot, with various efi files in there.
Are those the efi bootloader files?

@NickBOT:
Yes, but the UEFI boot sector with the "Windows Boot Manager", where the OS is booting off, is within a 100 MB sized separate and usually hidden partition named "EFI System".

Thank you ))

I created insall USB-drive using regular tools from the Microsoft website (Windows Download Assistant), as I did the previous time for installing Win10 on other M2.SSD. Further, all the default settings, the installer creates the partitions by itself

In the UEFI of my motherboard there is no such setting explicitly.

Yes, I dont use secure boot option at all.

Yes.

That's right, the partitions were created correctly (529 mb recovery, 100 mb EFI and the main partition with Windows files). But there is no boot from this disk and in UEFI it does not appear at all.

@Oren:
The entry "Windows Boot Manager" within the "Boot" section of the BIOS means your NVMe.
So there is nothing to worry about.
