Solved! Lenovo Yoga 720 15ikb - Legacy mode loads up but gives me a black screen

[dude_is_that_pasta]

So I got the dreaded "can't find hard drive insert and press any key" etc... my screen works.

• I went into bios, it said no hard drive detected
• I turn on legacy mode, go to bios and my hard drive is detected
• I restart to use the comp. Everything turns on but once it loads. I just get a black screen.

here's the interesting thing.

• in legacy mode it only loads up to the black screen if I disable fast boot
• when I enable fast boot it loads up saying that it can't detect hard drive but when I go into bios my hard drive is detected. Regardless of it being in legacy mode.

anyone know a fix?

try repairing windows with an install media. You can create one with windows media creator and an USB flash drive

update the BIOS of the laptop in BIOS itself
