    BIOS doesnt detect the storage device


    Hello, i am trying to do a clean instal of windows 11, but ran into a problem that when i have to select the location i want to download the windows, i only see one disc available the USB i plugged in with the windows 11 instaler stuff. I then checked my bios utility page and saw that under the label storage it says that theres no storage device present. Although under the label of the 'boot priority' i can see my hard disk, so i believe it cant be damaged or something, only not recognized by BIOS. Heres how it looks like: How should i fix this issue?Thanks in advance.

    :)

    Hi,

    I would suggest you to update your storage controller driver.

    Method 1: Update Storage Controller Driver

    Follow the steps.

    • Press Windows key + X key and click Device Manager.
    • Expand the Storage Controller.
    • Right-click on the Storage controller Driver
      and select Update Driver Software.
    • Wait for sometime and check if the issue persists.
    • Restart your system.
    Method 2: Uninstall and then reinstall Storage Controller driver from the Manufacturer's Website

    Follow the steps.

    • Press Windows key + X key and click Device Manager.
    • Expand the Storage Controller.
    • Right-click on the Storage controller Driver
      and select Uninstall.
    • Now, go to the Manufacturer's website and download the latest storage controller driver.
    • Once the download is complete, double-click and run the setup file to complete installation.
    • Restart your system.
    Hope this helps. Please respond if you have further related queries.

    Regards,

  3. TPM enabled in BIOS but no device detected

    I have enabled TPM in the BIOS but it does not detect a device. Not in the BIOS or in the device manager.

    I have no security devices and it is also not listed in the system devices.

    I checked my hardware and it should be capable of tpm 2.0

    Motherboard: MSI MPG 570 Gaming Plus

    CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 5600X

    I read a lot of articles about this, but in every case, the computer at least detected something to be then able to re-install a driver or something.

    BIOS doesnt detect the storage device

    Not detected by USB port - Garmin

    Hello


    I have a Garmin Forerunner 210 which has been driving me insane. It used to work fine and sync perfectly in the start, however it doesnt anymore.

    I am using the Garmin Express program to sync as it is supposted to. However, it cannot detect/add my device. Nor can windows. It doesnt enter Mass storage mode, and disk management doesnt detect it either. However, it just goes into charging mode. Device itself works perfectly and tracks HR/GPS etc., but it is not detected as a storage device by the pc.

    Things i've tried.
    - Multiple Pcs with the newest Garmin Express (windows 10)
    - Reinstall/clean install of Garmin Express.
    - Cleaned the watches contacts/connection points etc.
    - Reset/hard reset the watch
    - Garmins suggestion on forcing software mode on the watch. (Turn it off and hold START/STOP while plugging into USB -> Just goes into charging again)


    ANY help is appreciated. Comments, suggestions and certainly solutions *Biggrin
