2One possibility: as an SSD dies, it goes into read-only mode. That may leave it accessible, but not bootable.– DrMoishe PippikCommented Nov 17, 2023 at 19:36

1Was Windows installed in Legacy Mode? The only reason you would enable CSM is if that’s the case. It makes no sense to enable RAID mode if Windows was installed with it enabled. For your own sanity stop disabling and enabling options, that were not disabled or enabled, because by doing so you only lessen the chances we can help you. Your suspicions that this an EFI are spot on, but CSM is incompatible with UEFI Windows installations, and enabling RAID mode wouldn’t solve an EFI partition problem.– RamhoundCommented Nov 17, 2023 at 19:58

1@DrMoishePippik Maybe. But it's a relatively new SSD. Also, this doesn't explain why the USBs don't boot.– kourkoubiniCommented Nov 17, 2023 at 21:50

@Ramhound Unless I remember wrong, it wasn't installed in legacy mode. I tried these different settings to get the USBs to work. I don't know why they only boot when RAID mode is selected.– kourkoubiniCommented Nov 17, 2023 at 22:05

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. windows-7), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
