Help please. My nvme SSDs do not show up on BIOS/Windows install screen.

I haven't heard back yet, so not much to report.
Hi,
Yeah I wouldn't think a gpu swap would effect a m.2
Try recovery tools with installation media if he doesn't use reflect winpe startup repair options.
Why would swapping a GPU affect an NVMe? Never happened to me before, with the BIOS not even finding it.

Hi,
Yep something that never happens
I'm sure putting the older card back in was already tried ?

If bios doesn't see the m.2 ? must of failed at a weird time murphy's law kicks in "Anything that can go wrong will go wrong"
Installation media and the m.2 driver see if installing it for the installer maybe the last option but again optimize defaults in bios first.

Potential motherboard flex, sudden failure upon power down or power up.

World of electronics is measured in mttbf. Some last a day some last a millennium or 2, some last beyond that, some in between...
