msi dragon center not starting with windows

I could use the mobo option to format the nvme and start all over, don’t know if that would solve the issue, but I have some documents I don’t want to loose from the D: partition (don’t ask, same lapse in judgement when I didn’t back everything up) so I really want to recover them. Each time after confirming the boot order and disk nothing would happen, it's like the nvme presence prevents anything else from happening. My conclusion is that the presence of the nvme in the mobo somehow prevents the step between BIOS and Windows booting from a different source (or any kind of source like step 1, 2, 3).

Inserted the nvme drive in the secondary slot on the mobo and once more 1, 2, 3 did not work.

Took out the nvme drive from the main slot and then 1, 2, 3 worked as expected.

CMOS Jumper reset with cable and repeated 1, 2, 3 = did not work.

BIOS update and repeated 1, 2, 3 = did not work.

Booting into Windows from other ssd from other pc.

Booting Linux Live directly from usb stick.

Things I have tried (always paying attention to the boot order in BIOS and the source/disk):

Storage: Samsung 850 Pro Series 256GB 2.I know the title sounds like clickbait but hear me out… I got the parts for a new system, put it together, installed Windows and all drives, I created 2 partitions, C: drive for Windows and D: drive for files and various documents/folders, I used the PC with no issues for a couple of days and then (don’t ask why, I most likely had a lapse in judgement) I changed the ratio and base clock of the CPU in the software MSI Dragon Center (so not in the BIOS, I was in Windows while doing this and I used values under the default) and everything just froze.Īfter a while I gave up waiting and forced shutdown the PC with the on/off button, and when rebooting it wouldn’t start Windows and it got stuck in “Preparing automatic repair” and nothing happened, I tried with Windows media installer trying to get into System Restore but it would not work. Memory: Corsair Vengeance LPX 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR4-3000 Memory Motherboard: MSI X99A Raider ATX LGA2011-3 Motherboard How can I fix this problem? Is there a way to save the LED and Gaming Mode settings directly to the GPU so you don't have to open the app every time?ĬPU Cooler: Noctua NH-D15 82.5 CFM CPU Cooler It has done that for a few times, then stopped doing it ever since. The program works just fine except for when I check off a box that says to launch the app upon Windows Startup in the settings. I'm using Windows 7 and have installed the MSI Gaming App when installing the drivers for my GTX 1070. I have posted in another part of the forums but no one is replying to that.
