3 TopicsUEFI -- No bootable device found
I have an Acer Aspire 3 A315-21-4808 laptop with Windows 10 (64-bit) version 22H2 that gave up the ghost about 1½ weeks ago. As it is, what I consider, my backup laptop I decided to resuscitate it back to life. But I wasn't going to break the bank on it. I ordered a new battery and a new 1 Tb HDD. So, before people suggest that I could have upgraded to a SSD drive I didn't want a complicated laptop resuscitation, that's why I went the HDD route. Now to get to the problem. When I tried to install Windows 10 on the UEFI firmware I get a "No bootable device found." But when I changed the firmware to "Legacy" I had no problems installing Windows 10. Can someone explain to me what is going on and if it's possible to get my laptop back to UEFI?18Views0likes1CommentFailed to enter windows
Hi everyone, After installing ubuntu, I can not get into the windows and struggle with a bios loop, and failed to repair it with iso or other startup disks. Gently ask if there is any possiblility I can repair the Windows reserving documents in C.

I needed to install Debian wheezy a couple of years ago and the computer wouldn't boot to Linux SSD (Solid State Drive) separate hard drive unless I disabled secure boot in the UEFI (Unified Extended Firmware Interface). So I disabled it. Does it make Windows 10 less secure? I read somewhere that without this option enabled malicious software, adware, spyware, virus, rootkit, trojan, keylogger, ransomware, worm, etc. can gain control of my PC like in other legacy and deprecated Windows. So now when I boot into Linux I disable the option and when I am working on Windows enable this option. It's kind of annoying. So this question.Solved6.7KViews0likes1Comment
