Symptome

Follow the guidelines below to resolve the following error message:

The No boot device Found error appears when the Boot Sequence is set to Legacy mode or the operating system is installed under Legacy mode. 


No boot device found error

The following error may appear after operating system installation: "No boot device found" (Figure 1). 
This error occurs when the device BIOS boot sequence is set to Legacy mode.

"No bootable devices were found" error
Figure 1: "No bootable devices were found" error.

If the operating system is installed in Legacy mode, the error message appears when you reboot/restart the system. The failure cannot be recovered by changing the BIOS setting back to Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI). The operating system should be reinstalled. 

NOTES:
  • Only Windows 10 and higher and Linux operating systems in UEFI boot mode are supported on these specific Dell systems.
  • Ensure that UEFI mode is enabled in the BIOS before trying to reinstall the operating system.
  • Using an Optical Drive to install the operating system is not supported in legacy mode as there is no Optical Drive option in the Boot Menu.
  • The above Dell systems have a 7th-generation Coffee Lake processor (and above). The systems are designed to boot exclusively in the UEFI boot environment.
  • As a result, the operating system fails to boot if Legacy boot mode is selected on these systems.

Ursache

Wrong boot mode set in BIOS.

Lösung

If the operating system is installed with UEFI before the boot sequence is changed, the system can be recovered by changing the Boot sequence back to UEFI.

If the operating system is installed with Legacy mode, the system cannot be recovered by changing the Boot sequence back to UEFI mode. 
Operating system reinstallation should be performed.

Follow the steps below to reinstall Windows 10 or higher:

  1. From a power off state, power on the system and Press F2 at the Dell logo to boot into the BIOS setup menu.
  2. Choose Boot sequence and change the option from Legacy to UEFI then click Apply in the lower right corner of the screen (Figure 2):

  6. Click Exit in the lower right corner of the screen and wait for the system to reboot.
  7. Reinstall the Windows 10 operating system.

  1. Follow steps 1 through 3 from the steps above for installing Windows 10 (these steps are the same for a Linux install).
  2. Verify the Secure Boot -> Secure Boot Enable option is Disabled in the BIOS (Figure 5):
