Hi everybody,
I recently had to install a new (to me) motherboard as my old one experienced issues. I purchased a used z170a gaming m7 on eBay and installed it. Other specs are an i7 6700k and 16gb ddr4 ram, booting from a Samsung evo 850 ssd. I also have an HDD plugged in for extra storage.
My issue is that every time I boot my pc after it is turned off for a bit, it boots to bios first and then if I exit out of bios, it will reboot to windows. I have tried several things (such as ensuring that my windows boot manager ssd is the number 1 boot priority and I changed the cmos battery) does anybody have any idea what could be causing this or how I could get it to just boot straight to windows? It says the boot loader is installed in my C drive.
Whenever I switched motherboards, I didn’t do any reformatting of the drives. I just plugged them in and it was able to boot windows right off of them.
Thank you
