I bought a new SSD recently, Samsung 970 evo plus 1tb. I have a asus b360m-a mother board. My pc already had a Sata SSD, but was only 250gb. I installed the new SSD and tried to use Samsung data migration to clone the new SSD. After I had done that, I went into BIOS and tried to set it as normal boot device.
I kept getting the black screen that says it is not a bootable drive and to either pick a bootable drive or insert start up media. I then tried to install windows on the new SSD through a usb. I have checked disk management and apparently my new SSD is the boot drive.
The issue is that every time I restart or boot up the pc, I get the blue screen with the error message about recovery, or the black screen saying it is not a bootable drive. BUT if I go into BIOS and choose to boot up from windows boot manager followed by the name of my old SSD, it boots up just fine. The stranger part is how disk management says the new SSD is my boot drive but in the bios menu I choose the old SSD windows boot manager.
To be honest, I am a little over my head here and not sure where to go from here. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Also when the boot does go through after choosing the drive on BIOS, it loads a blue screen asking which windows 10 to load (windows 10 volume 9 or windows 10 volume 4). Not sure if that helps. Thank you again for any help.
