GPT Header Corruption

Status
Not open for further replies.
Hi,
Would appreciate help with the following problem please. Apologies for length.

M/Board: ASUS Prime B660M-A D4
O/System 1: Windows 10 Home Retail (Not an upgrade. Has its own Product Key)
O/System 2: Windows 11 Home Retail (Not an upgrade. Has its own Product Key)

Windows 10 installed on its own on the C:\ drive (Hard drive 1)
Windows 11 installed on its own on the D:\ drive (Hard drive 2)

Own build computer which I installed Windows 10 some time ago and its been running fine with no problems. Recently I installed Windows 11 which installed fine once I changed the hard drive (D:\) to GPT.

Once it had been installed and I start the computer the "AMIBIOS" screen opens (White print on black screen) which, amongst other things shows the following computer details and a error message:

Motherboard
CPU
USB Devices
Hard Drives
DVD Writer

“GPT header corruption has been detected. Please check SATA mode setting in BIOS Setup, or you can use [Boot Sector (MBR / GPT) Recovery policy] item under [Boot Configuration] page to recover GPT header Press F1 to run Setup".

Pressing <F1> takes me into the "ASUS BIOS Utility-EZ Mode" screen.

Under "Boot Priority" it shows the "Windows Boot Manager" and under that is "Boot Menu (F8)"
Clicking on "Boot Menu (F8)" takes you to the "Boot Menu" screen which shows the "Windows Boot Manager".
Clicking on that will re-boot the computer and the "Windows Boot Manager" will open showing "Windows 10" and "Windows 11".
Clicking on anyone will run that version of Windows.

If I want to run the other operating system I have to re-boot (expected) and then go through the same procedure as before.

I have not made any alterations in the BIOS re the error message in case it makes things worse as I can at least use both operating systems but it is annoying to have to go through the above each time. Never had this problem before on older Windows versions on dual boot systems.

Thank you
Vic
