My new build I have works great It has a MSI Z590-A Pro MB with integrated graphics. I have it paired with a MSI GeForce RTX 2060 card. I have windows 10 pro on the Seagate sata drive.
My problem is I decided I wanted a faster OS so I installed a SAMSUNG 980 M.2 2280 M.2 drive . My BIOS recognizes the M.2 drive just fine as an extra drive . But when I install windows 10 on it it will not boot up at all ( The Seagate SATA drive is disconnected at this point) . I can get it to boot just fine and run windows on the M.2 drive if I remove the 2060 Graphics card and use the integrated graphics for my monitor.

I have tried moving the M.2 drive to another slot but still the same problem.. My graphics card is installed inthe PCIe 4.0/3.0 x16 slot (which is the only slot it will work in) my processoris a Intel Core i9-10850K Comet Lake . I am not really sure if it does not boot or boots and I cant see on my monitor ,, I have changed monitor locations to all places including the integrated graphics with no success.. On occasions I can hit the reset button and it will boot and load windows just fine .. occasionally ..To me it appears there may be a conflict in some manner although the drive works fine without windows on it .. My problem is only there with the 2060 graphics card installed..

I need help on this please

Thanks in advance for any suggestions..

In which M2 slot did you install the SSD?
HI --SID-- I installed the SSD into the M2_2 and tried the M2_3 slot as well the M2_1 slot is only available to 11th generation processor and mine is a 10th generation so that one is unavailable to me ,, what is so odd about it is I can use the SSD as a second drive just fine ,, I can store and run programs from it no problem but as soon as I try to boot widows 10 OS from it ,, it wont work unless I remove my 2060 graphics card.

And of course when Im trying to run the OS from it is the only drive , I disconnect the other drive .
