Whats a ec reset?

[flint heron]

It reset the embedded controller.

That's all you need to know

[weary ridge]

What is that suppose to do?

[flint heron]

It supposed to fix your problem?

I already told you what it is.

[weary ridge]

So hard set or soft set

[flint heron]

Do the easy one first

[weary ridge]

I did it and now I get this

[quick inlet]

Open laptop make sure it is still connected properly

[flint heron]

Did you check if hard drive show up in bios yet?

[weary ridge]

Yes and it doesnt it says hard disk not detected

[flint heron]

Well you probably need to open the laptop, disconnect and reconnect the drive.

[weary ridge]

Ok I opened my laptop and disconnect and reconnect the drive and it appears at first but then when I reload and goes away and windows wont download

[flint heron]

Then likely the SSD is dead

[weary ridge]

So I need a new ssd great

[weary ridge]

@flint heron so if I get a new ssd and it doesnt work my pc basically fucked

[flint heron]

Well likely it's just the SSD

[weary ridge]

Any tips on how not to burn out a ssd cuz I think it was from a coding assignment I had

Making me run quicksort, insertion sort shit if yall know what that is
