Recently got a new SSD. Installed SSD, cloned everything from current into the new one, but now I'm not able to boot into BIOS to change boot drive since I want to wipe the old SSD.

I restart my PC and no mobo logo comes up and I smashed F11/DEL and nothing happens.

I've tried a cold boot as well and nothing.

I'm not sure what to do. Old SSD = 840 EVO, New SSD = 850 EVO.

you may have fast boot enabled on your current BIOS. have you tried resetting your CMOS in your board? check your motherboards manual on how to go about that.

you can also try shutting down. unplugging your powercord. and pressing the power button for 30secs. then plug back in and boot. press F2/DEL.

I shouldn't since I turned off fast boot a long time ago.

Resetting as in taking out the battery, right?
