Guys Im so sorry for asking this question cause Ive personally read close to what seems like 100 of this question with multiple different answers and suggestions... Sadly none have worked for me yet so thats why Im now going to ask the question thats been asked 100 times if not more.
How can I get into BIOS, if its not possible any longer, how do I get this new System startup option functioning?!?
This is the things Ive tried to far...
I really am sorry for coming to you guys with this but Ive been turning my comp on and off ALL day (started around noon, and its now 11:15pm ) All I wanna do is to be able to change the order of my boot proccess' cause I finally got a ssd I want to boot windows with...
On a side note, I also installed new 2x 8gb replacing old 4x 2gb ram, but i dont see how that could cause a bios boot to be so evasive! Also just trying to cover all my bases here to avoid any longer than needed replies the rest of my system is as follows:
IF anyone read through all of that, honestly I appericate the effort put in to such a covered topic, and if Im missing something blantly obvious somewhere please just smack me in the face with it at this point!! Thankyou regardless.
Another edit: Something else I just read I might try doing but im not sure it would work plus im not a real fan of the idea... Since the ssd is cloned, if I shut down the comp and remove the hdd and booted it w/ only the sdd would it get set as the new C: local drive? And if thats the case would bios rearrange itself? Then if I added the hdd back would it go back to the hdd being the C: and booting from there? It makes me kinda nervous just 'experimenting' like that while everything is working fine, just not exactly the way I want it too then end up making something worse!

ASRock extreme3 Z97 mobo
intel i5 cpu
now 2x 8gb DDR3 240pin (still have the old 4x 2gb just incase)
some old canablized 1TB HDD i took out of old gateway
new samsung 230gb SSD 850 w/ cloned HDD data
