Hey,
so I am fairly frequently seeing the message "reboot and select proper boot device" when I boot up my machine. In general, a reset resolves the issue and the machine proceeds to start up successfully. I have also observed this appear after leaving the machine running unattended for some time, which seems to coincide with Windows sleeping the hard drive.
I've ruled out the obvious (I've tried multiple SATA cables in different ports, different power connector). The SSD functioned perfectly in my previous build.
The motherboard is the Asrock z97M Anniversary and the SSD is an OCZ Vertex 2 128GB, which is running the latest firmware.
I'm fairly certain the fault lies with the motherboard here, my only question is really whether this a faulty unit or something that can be resolved with a bios update. Alternatively should I just buy a different brand board?
