| 1463471 | 2019-09-03 04:40:00 | wainuitech hi . I have had a lok at the DiskGenius and will DL the free option to have a looksee what it offers. The prices shown to purchase the Standard or Pro versions are in US Dollars as usual so cost is 33% more than shown. ($1.00US = $1.59NZ..so the Standard at $69.90 US is $111.57 NZ. Thanks for the link. I will have a try with it. I don't usually go for the 'Free Trial' because from experience they do will show what to do but wiill not do it until a license is purchased. Who knows, maybe DiskGenius is from a different mould. cheers oh.....I saved all data in the Samsung EVO 860 SSD and turned it to unallocated space using Easeus Partition Master, shut down...removed all external HDDs and the 160GB Sata HDD, booted into the W10 v1903 DVD and installed it to the Samsung SSD...as MBR, I wasn't presented with any option to use MBR or Gpt. Maybe because the SSD was in Basic MBR partition anyway, ok I go look into DiskGenius. cheers edit: as for Backup and apps.... somewhere in my external 16TB HDD's I have Acronis and Todo....old as the hills now... back to 2008/9/10.. thereabouts. Todo is by same person who now created the Aomei,......Might dig em out. or look up the backup you mentioned earlier that you use now |

| 1463472 | 2019-09-03 09:16:00 | ok I used Disk Genius..the Free version would do any fixing unless I purchased a license, (as I expected)... so I got a license and used that, There were errors: System Reserved is damaged and at the end nothing can be corrected by the app, has to be done manually. I add 3-4 pics from the 13 step procedure of checking Partitions and have uploaded 2 RAR files to MediaFire that can be downloaded from links I supply. I add 3-4 pics of the Errors found in System Reserved and the final one that says "System Reserved(0) Error: The Reserved (0).... The ending overlapped with ESP (1)...then it states that it cannot be fixed automatically and has to be done manually after all other errors are corrected. Sigh :D It now might be the time I use Disk Genius Pro to see if it can wipe away the toils and give me a clean slate to corrupt, again. Anything is possible :D cheers to all. crikey!!!!!!!!!!!! i cant go advanced and submit attachments! cor blimey I am cursed! www.mediafire.com .rar/file www.mediafire.com ERY_IN_BASIC_VERSION.rar/file |

| 1463473 | 2019-09-03 11:46:00 | Well, well, well :D After I closed Disk Genius, a few minutes later I accessed the M.2 SSD to see what it had on it and there was a lot I would like to save. But what happened was I received a New Notification saying to restart computer to fix hard drive error. Didn't say which Drive was to be fixed so a couple mins later after Macrium Reflect 7 had finished Downloading, I set the computer to restart. When it opened to PreOS screen it showed it was fixing D drive, and that is the Corsair Force MP300 M.2 NVMe SSD. Once I got into Windows, I looked in This PC Explorer and the D drive showed, I then opened Easeus Partition Master and the M.2 Drive now shows the System Reserved Partition and it has Data in it, whereas before it was showing as empty and/or missing. So, I am now going to shut down, disconnect all other Drives bar the Optic Drive and see if I can get the M.2 to boot into W10. to me it's begging to be bought alive. I hope it isn't having me on :D bbs.... here is a pic of Easeus showing the Drives connected and the Force MP300 with its System Reserved 16MB partition (volume?) all where it should be.( System Reserved was showing as being 549MB) in the Partition check pics!!!! 5 attachments , the four numbered ones are from the Disk Genius Partition Recovery check that I did earlier. Ok, time for me to go disconnect all drives bar the M.2 and see if it boots me in the posterity. :D |

| 1463474 | 2019-09-03 12:17:00 | Well, unfortunately its a no go. Setting the BIOS to boot from the Windows Boot Manager (Force MP300) or the Force MP300 options gets the PreOS screen saying to install a boot device as it was saying in pics I showed yesterday. Using the F8 key to get into Boot Menu, choosing to boot from both of the options (Windows Boot Manager (Force MP300) or the Force MP300) opens the Samsung Evo 860 SSD. :D ...yeah my thoughts entirely. I wondering if maybe its a corrupted BIOS (UEFI) because as I said before, anytime I try to change the settings for Boot device in BIOS and I press F10 to save changes, I get a window pops open telling me that I have not made any changes. So..oh oh....because it says the 'made no changes' even if I set the optic drive to be 1st boot. The Samsung SSD will boot open no matter what else is connected and set to first boot before it. hmmmmmmmm scratch something on that one. Tomorrow is another day,...the new M.2 NVMe will arrive and if that doesn't allow installing W10 to it I'll eat someones hat! Goodnight. cheers |

| 1463477 | 2019-09-03 20:40:00 | Looking at Disk genius, 2nd picture, If you are not going to try and save the OS which looks like its toast anyway, have you tried completely deleting all the 4 shown partitions.( With Disk Genius) Of Course it cant be done from within the OS it needs to run from a USB or another Install. You can make a USB bootable drive from Disk Genius. | wainuitech (129) | ||

So I will have to put Disk Genius onto a bootable USB drive and boot into that and then delete the 4 partitions on the M.2 SSD? |

I did have it on computer and may still have it in external HDD storage. But I will download it from the link you supplied and check it out. Thanks edit: Corsair Toolbox only showing the Samsung Evo 860 SSD..... I can't boot into the Corsair M.2 to test use the toolbox |

So I will have to put Disk Genius onto a bootable USB drive and boot into that and then delete the 4 partitions on the M.2 SSD?Yep, if you decide to wipe everything You cant wipe a drive if a program is running on it, only other drives. That's why sometimes on customers Computers its quicker to simply pull out their drive attach it to a workshop PC and wipe it, then put it back completely empty. Windows ( or any other OS) should pick up the empty / clean drive on reinstalling Some programs or partitions can be real brain teasers as in WTF :confused: Got one here right now, the damn crap AV they have keeps coming back even though it looks like its gone, found a hidden folder buried deep that's reinstalling it, took some good software I have to to find it :nerd: |
