HELP! Install BIBM on new 1TB SSD, BIBM cannot see space
Posted: Sun Jul 28, 2019 1:48 pm
Hi,
I just got a new 1TB NVME SSD to replace the original 256GB NMVE SSD in a Dell 7500 laptop.
So, I installed my (licensed) BIBM from DVD to that drive (I removed all other hard drives from the machine before installing BIBM) and the BIBM installation seemed to go ok, but, after reboot, BIBM seems to see the drive, but only sees on 7.8MB EMBRM partition and no other space on the drive!!
Note that if I boot BIBM from the DVD and go into Partition Work, BIBM DOES SEE THE WHOLE 1TB DRIVE, but it is just the INSTALLED BIBM that does not see the whole SSD?
What am I doing wrong? Why is the INSTALLED BIBM not able to see the whole 1TB SSD (again the 1TB SSD is the only drive plugged into the system)???
Please help!
Thanks,
Jim
EDIT: I have a clarification: When I boot BIBM from the DVD it sees the whole 1TB SSD, BUT ONLY IF I UNINSTALL BIBM from the hard drive.
If I install BIBM to the hard drive and then boot to the BIBM DVD, BIBM then sees only a single 7.8MB partition and no other space!!
