[SOLVED] Can't change/How do i change default boot from device

[AlwaysReaper]

I installed windows 10 some days ago,

Every time I open the pc I have to manually select "boot from" my SSD, if I don't it will just be a black screen with " booting from CD/DVD at the top right corner I can't do anything fron there but restart my pc.

If you go into the BIOS there should be a boot priority list.
You should put the SSD at the top of the list.
Then make sure you SAVE the BIOS before you exit the BIOS.
If it's still not working.....I would power down....and change out the CMOS battery for the BIOS....then power up.....go to the BIOS.....and do what I said up above....and don't forget to SAVE the BIOS before you exit it.

Quick question. Is there a DVD in the drive? If so, what happens when you reboot after removing it?

Under Advanced Bios features you should have Hard Disk Boot Priority. Change that to your SSD's name.

If the dvd is in the drive it gets detected and it says "Press anything to boot from dvd" and if i wait without pressing anything its going to start windows from ssd. If the dvd is out of the drive its just stuck at "Booting from Cd/DVD:"

Make sure there isn't a disk in the drive and see my referenced page in your manual (linked above).
