Solved! No bootable device

[Dizzyz14]

Acer 315-51-757c laptop, new WD hard drive, still says no bootable device on startup. Boot menus shows HD as HDD1 and 1st on boot priority order. What am I missing? Also, boot mode is UEFI, secure boot is enabled.

"new WD hard drive"

Have you installed an OS on this drive?

Secure boot is the issue i think.


Try booting into your bios, set bios password and enable legacy support (this should disable secureboot), save the settings and reboot.
DO NOT click anything whilst rebooting as a screen will appear with a password, just retype what you see on the screen and hit enter.

Let me know how it goes.

thanks
