No bootable devices found (XPS 15 9550)

[Rene de Bruin]

Hi,

After installing Windows Creators edition and also some last Dell updates I am not able to enter my laptop anymore. I receive the message "no bootable devices found".

I have an XPS 15 9550

System BIOS: 1.2.25

I tried via F2 to check if secure boot option is enabled : Yes

I did Diagnostics Test and no issues found

How to fix this problem?

Thanks and regards,

Rene

Hey Rene, 

I had exactly the same problem yesterday after bios update of Dell.

Unfortunately i am in Moscow, for my studies and it would be really difficult for support;

so hopefully i found a solution, which run for me, i think the bootfile is corrupted, and you should try this :

Good luck.

Thank you Hk417a, you are awesome!

I got trapped with 1.2.25 too, "no bootable devices found" right after successful completion of BIOS update.

These kind of things make me never wanna update it again.

Hi, I tried the same with the new BIOS Update (1.2.29), no luck. Any suggestions?

Unplug the dock, if you're using one, and use a regular AC adapter instead. 1.2.29 makes dock USB go berserk again.
