Hello everyone,
I just upgraded my system with new M.2 SSD (nvme 250gb Samsung evo plus) and i was able to install windows 10 x64 on it and after installation everything was running smooth. Also while installing windows on M.2 SSD I physically removed all my other storage device from motherboard (sata ssd and hdd). Then i restarted my pc and i got a error blue screen so i did hard restart (from cabinet button) and went into bios to see if my motherboard is detecting the M.2 SSD or not. My board recognizes the M.2 storage in "Onboard device configuration" and also in boot selection menu (the one which comes when you press F8). The strange part is that my boot order is showing only my WD HDD with Windows manager written with it and when i tried to configure boot options from motherboard bios options i can only see my Sata SSD and Sata HDD, i can't find the option to choose M.2 as my primary boot device. I tried everything which i knew and now i have no clues what to do.
Note - I never installed windows on my HDD, i used to have windows on my ssd which i completely formatted after installing OS on M.2 and now it's being used as storage device.
I am able to boot windows and able to use my PC when i choose M.2 from boot selection menu (by pressing F8 on bios) screen.
Please help me because i want to use M.2 as my primary boot as it is super fast and makes my life easy while using my PC. It is so frustrating to always go to bios and select the M.2 from there and then boot. Any help is highly appreciated.
