    Question System identifies my new m.2 as the drive that windows is installed on but BIOS identifies my old ssd sata drive as the boot option still.

    OK, I got off topic a bit so, I deleted the post although I see plenty of posts above telling the OP to reinstall the OS. I simply suggested a different method.

    Question System identifies my new m.2 as the drive that windows is installed on but BIOS identifies my old ssd sata drive as the boot option still.

    If you disconnected the HDD and the SSD didn't show up, I have to ask, how you cloned the SDD as there may be nothing on it?

    Before doing anything else, try disconnecting the SATA drive and go into BIOS and designate the SSD as the boot drive.

    Question Bench testing an MSI B550-A Pro

    I would try a different stick of RAM in slot labeled Number One and install a GPU. Do you have a MB speaker installed? The best you can hope for without a GPU is some beeps telling you there is no GPU installed.

    [SOLVED] Why is M.2 drive showing half capacity?

    The tag can say anything, that doesn't mean it is the correct tag though. I would format this and return it.

    The M.2 was probably packaged wrong at the factory.

    Question GPU only works without drivers or in Safe mode.

    Maybe download DDU and download the graphics driver from Nvidia, restart in safe mode and run DDU and than restart in safe mode again. Install the Nvidia driver and restart normally.

    Well, you guys can call it whatever you want, and correct me as much as you like but, I know that if you have a M.2 drive and plug a different HDD or SDD into the disabled SATA ports, there will be troubles .

    [SOLVED] Why is my GTX 1080 performing so terribly?

    Maybe a bad choice of wording but, I would still disconnect the HDD to see if the SSD straightens up since it takes almost zero effort.
