Hello everyone. Sorry for not posting a hello message first but I'm in the process of catching a flight so not much spare time. So straight to the point. I've been running into some problems with my laptop lately. When I turn on my laptop, a black screen appears, no ROG logo, and after 10-15 seconds the machine goes into bios. It doesn't boot at all. The ssd itself isn't recognised in the bios. It says SATA 0 empty. I tried switching positions with the HDD but the same thing appears on SATA 2. When I leave the ssd out and power up the laptop, it still goes into the bios but without the 10 second delay. The problem appeared after I tried to power up the laptop while it went off due to low battery. I wanted to finish some important work, the laptop switched off, I pressed the on/off button, the laptop turned on but after a second it switched off again due to low battery.
I've tried putting the ssd on another machine but it still doesn't get recognised. The BIOS sees something there but it can't figure out what it is.
RMA is out of the question since I'm a seaman and I won't be going near any even remotely civilised country for a while.
Thanks.
