I just got a 250 gb ssd and installed steam and a few games on it. I also installed windows 10 and made this ssd my boot drive. It works fine but some of my old games still on my hard drive don't have their save data. But if I change my boot drive back to the hard drive the games load my saves. Is their any way to make my boot drive the ssd and have the saves work?

You have to discover where each game puts their save files.
Then, look on the old drive for that location.
Copy that save data to where it is supposed to be on the new SSD.

Hi and welcome to Tom's forum.

As USAFRet says, the games creates a folder where save game progress and configuration. Usually that folder is on My Documents so you should start to look there in the old drive. After you find the folder is just copy and paste in the same location on your SSD.
