It's not that it should show anything. Just that Fast Boot may indeed be the culprit. Which is why I was suggesting that you wait until you see whether you've already fixed it. Changing multiple things at once leaves the possibility of never knowing what exactly fixed the issue (assuming that...

assign letter=f
