No Boot Device Available Sata1: Installed Msata: None F1 To Retry F2 For Setup

Dell Insiron 2350 AIO upgraded from Win 8 to Win 8.1 to Windows 10. I Had a Power failure while shutting down my computer.
When trying to reboot, computer posts:

No Boot device available
SATA1: Installed
mSATA: None
F1 to retry F2 for setup

Did Dell's ePSA diagnostics, all hardware passed, Tried backup and recovery usb drive, computer booted to drive,
tried the 5 minute repair, could not repair partition. I do not want to lose all my data by reformatting and
replacing the system.

This is information using the Mini-tool Partition Wizard Boot Disc 9

Partition Capacity Used Unused FileSystem Type Status

Disk 1
System 99.98 mb 29.54 mb 70.44 mb Fat32 GPT (EFI System Partition) Active and Boot
System 128 mb 128 mb 0 B other GPT (Reserved Partition) None

Disk 2

Disk 2 is a mSata Samsung SSD PM83 which was used as a cache disk using Intel Rapid Storage Technology?
I tried to perform the Partition Recovery Wizard on this drive with no success.
Does anyone have any suggestions as to what all these partitions are for,
and how I get my computer to working again. I am not sure what the GPT type means either.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

 

You can try this method to try to recover your cache SSD.

*I've no experience with SSD caching or GPT (I use BIOS/MBR still) and I dislike Intel software, avoiding it wherever I can.*

I guess that if you can't get the SSD to work, you'd need to enter the UEFI/Bios to disable it and the Intel caching - but you might then need to run boot repairs on the remaining GPT HDD to enable that to boot up.

 

Pretty much a similar issue on my end and I ended up running across this just yesterday so you are in luck! Besides recovering it somewhere it also mentions some of the partitions are no longer necessary and how you could go about creating just the single recovery partition for Windows 8.1 since all of them came as 8 initially and that is pretty much no longer a thing plus a pain the restore to and update back to 8.1. Also not sure exactly where also mentions the function and type or whatever for every partition.

I can pretty much explain step by step how you can fix this all and even how to save yourself from the grief in the future and you will not even need to delete everything. But before that i do have a couple questions.

When you turn on your laptop what exactly happens? Do you see the Dell Logo screen, does it enter into windows at all? If so which version of windows, does it just get stuck on the black screen saying there it nowhere to boot from. Do you have a recovery usb or dvd or something, if not do you have any ed on the Windows setup on USB or a cd or something?


Anyways if you could just explain what happens when you turn on the laptop we can start.

And do not fret, =]
