I cannot access the BIOS if the keyboard not get work.

I cannot press any F option or the Esc to move on.
This happen with a wireless or wired keyboard.
Can you remove the new drive (F: drive in this case) and leave or attach the old drive which is supposed to work ?

Hello Marcus,

Unfortunately no. But now it's too late. Everything destroyed ☹️
Can you remove the new drive (F: drive in this case) and leave or attach the old drive which is supposed to work ?

I'm trying it before some minutes but get this:

I do not see where anyone has suggested this. Bios must show first boot device as Windows Boot Manager.
After restore Replace old drive with new one. Do Not have any other drives connected at this time. Boot from Macrium boot media and select 'fix boot problems'

instructions here Scroll down in this article and find Fix Boot Problems for GPT/UEFI Boot Systems Fixing Windows boot problems - Knowledgebase 8.0 - Macrium Reflect Knowledgebase

I would try this, it will/should fix your boot issues.

If your old drive was working before, it should work now, too, after removing or disconnecting the new drive.

Guys,

I'm think you don't read my replys. I can't do nothing from all the above steps because I'm stuck to the blue recovery page.

I cannot select any option as my keyboard and mouse stop working.

Shut off your machine, put the old drive back in and and then power it back up. Use the power button.

Sure. You are right. I will.
Irregardles of your msconfig setting, if you remove your new drive and leave in case or attach the old drive, you should be able to boot into Windows on your old drive. Windows will boot into a bootable drive it finds.

If you have another PC, you can download a Windows 11 ISO for whatever your version of Windows 11 is and then use Rufus to create a Boot able Thumb Drive and and then you could either install anew Windows 11 or repair it.

Irregardles of your msconfig setting, if you remove your new drive and leave in case or attach the old drive, you should be able to boot into Windows on your old drive. Windows will boot into a bootable drive it finds.

Unfortunately no. I make a lot of trys.

1) Remove the old Drive and leave only new. Result:

IMG_6155.png

2) Remove the new drive and leave only the old.
Result:

IMG-6154.jpg

If you have another PC, you can download a Windows 11 ISO for whatever your version of Windows 11 is and then use Rufus to create a Boot able Thumb Drive and and then you could either install anew Windows 11 or repair it.

I have a laptop. Can you provide step by step what should I do? Just to avoid mistakes.

1. Download Windows 11
2. Use Rufus to my laptop?
3.?

Thanks.

If BIOS settings are changed regarding USB and/or PS/2 keyboard/mouse functionality, you cannot use your mouse and keyboard in BIOS. The attached picture shows the BIOS settings for mouse and keyboard. If I disable them, my only option is to reset the BIOS to regain functionality.

My motherboard is ASUS H97 Pro. My CPU is Intel i7-4790.
