Problem after deleting System Reserved 100mb partition

[Tok Kong]

Last time system was on full HDD.

Then did a fresh OS install on SSD, and had HDD with old OS installation (no reformat done) as data drive within same system.

Few days back hand itchy and deleted system reserved 100mb partition on HDD which had old OS installation files.

When boot up, single POST beep then bio splash screen then had this image below

Not able to enter bios.
Still can run solely on SSD.

Please kindly guide me. Thank you so much!

Deleting system reserve partition wouldn't cause u not able enter bios.

To solve that problem, reset bios.


With just ssd attached, put windows CD and open command prompt and do fixboot and fixmbr

My experiences when the 100mb is missing: System generally becomes unstable and sluggish. This happened to me twice when I cloned data from one drive to another.

It should not result in you not being able to get into BIOS. One exception is when you are using say Win 8 or 10 where you need to shut your comp down properly. When you hit shutdown, it typically goes into a hibernate mode rather than a full shut down, thus it cannot boot into the BIOS.

Go into Windows using only the SSD. Then connect the HDD via an external dock, back up the data and reformat the HDD.

100MB System Reserve should not affect your BIOS.

You can boot to bios without any hdd/ssd attached

Single POST beep means it passed so no hardware problem. Like Koenig168, backup your old HDD, clear all partitions, format and put the data back.

possible loose video cable connection, caused when fiddling with computer case to plug and unplug HDD/SSD.

try connect back the old HDD and see if the SSD files transferred had problems
