I recently upgraded my rig and everything has been working great. I'd like to fully utilize the 32Gb M.2 Optane card I purchased. However this requires the boot drive to be in GPT format opposed to MBR.
I cloned my existing 320Gb HDD over the to the 500Gb SSD, and it boots just fine. After doing some research I found that I could use GPTGEN to convert the drive without losing my data. After doing the conversion, I am now unable to boot from the SSD (even after changing the bios from AHCI to UEFI.
I have a feeling that the SSD hasn't been partitioned correctly, but I'm having a hard time finding the correct information on this. Any assistance would be fantastic.
