I get the message "Reboot and Select Proper Boot Device" when i start my PC, Help?

I just built my second PC and when I boot it up everything works just fine, when I enter the BIOS all the components are detected including the 500g hard drive, but the moment I exit the BIOS or just boot it up without entering the BIOS I get the message "Reboot and Select Proper Boot Device or insert boot media in selected boot device and press a key". I have changed the boot order so my hard drive boots first but this doesn't help. Some help would be very appreciated.

Thank for the time

Why do you believe your HDD should be bootable? Is it a used disk that you had in a previous system? If so, it MIGHT boot. With a new system, you should install a fresh OS. Here is a Tom's how to -- https://www.tomshardware.com/news/how-to-do-clean-installation-windows-10,36160.html

Good point, it is a new drive with nothing installed onto it so when I get home I will test out your method.

Update, I followed the steps but when I boot off of the USB it says "Missing operating system" but the windows 10 installer is on the USB, I have looked around the BIOS and no matter what order I put the boot priority into nothing changes

Then you didn't create the USB properly.
What, exactly, did you put on it?
