    Over and over. Safe Mode also crashes. The update was the P43R1600Twins-110dB Bios 1.40 for DOS package from ASRock. The BIOS still sees the drive, so Im hoping the drive itself is fine and Windows just cant load teh new driver. What are my options from the recovery environment? I have another PC available to make a USB stick if needed.

    day one patch is bigger than the actual game, classic

  2. check BIOS SATA/NVMe mode. if teh new driver installed for RAID/RST mode and the BIOS is in AHCI (or vice versa), Windows cant find its boot disk.. 馃う dont flip modes randomly, but note what its set to.

  3. before any repair, back up: boot from a Linux live USB or attach the drive to another PC and copy important files... then experiment without fear.

  5. @binarysmith-36q wowww ok got into Safe Mode through Startup Settings, uninstalled P43R1600Twins-110dB Bios 1.40 for DOS in Device Manager, rebooted. The work laptop is running fine again.

    nothing is more permanent than a temporary workaround
