What is No Boot Support?

Are you facing errors such as "no boot device," "boot device not found," or "boot device not found, please install an operating system"? Don’t worry, you’ve come to the right place for assistance.
All computers, whether they are powered by Windows OS or macOS, use a boot device to start. A bootable device can be any storage device connected to your computer. The majority of computers boot from a CD/DVD drive, USB connection, or an HDD/SSD/NVMe connected directly to the motherboard, and advanced computer users can boot from a remote storage or network.

Sometimes, when users press the power button to turn on their computer, they face errors such as “boot device not found,” “boot device not found, please install an operating system," or “no boot device." This happens because the operating system isn't able to find a storage device that contains the necessary boot files and drives to boot the system.

 

Causes for 'boot device not found,’ 'boot device not found, please install an operating system’, or 'no boot device’:

• The boot order on your computer is not correct.
• Your computer is not able to identify the bootable device that has been installed.
• Your bootable devices are corrupted or damaged.
• The Master Boot Record (MBR) is damaged.
• Your Windows OS system partition is not active.
• There is a problem with your CMOS or BIOS settings.
• The IDE/SATA cable is malfunctioned.

 

Can you resolve the 'boot device not found,’ "boot device not found, please install an operating system", or "no boot device" error?
