“Upgraded” from a UEFI mobo to a BIOS only mobo, but my system disk was created for UEFI on usb stick and won’t boot with new-to-me, BIOS only, mobo. Is there any way to recover the system on the UEFI usb stick and transfer it to a new usb stick system set up for the BIOS to boot? Or any other solutions? I don’t want to rebuild all my users and pools.
Old mobo setup:
AMD A-whatever cheap APU
MSI A78M-e35
16gb ddr3 @ 1600mhz
8 1tb WD Blues
Intel NIC
Generic SATA card
New mobo setup:
AMD FX-8370
ASUS M5A78L-M
32gb ddr3 @ 1600mhz
Everything else the same.
I have my NAS in a fractal design node 804. The FX came out of my main machine in a Ryzen upgrade. I had to get a mATX AM3 board to fit in the case. Also wanted more RAM slots. But didn’t realize the issue. I never made a system snapshot either.
