mobo: p8p67m pro ASUS
so i've installed a new SSD, figured i'd swap to 10 at the same time. i've done this on a laptop with one HD before so i figured i knew what i was doing.
upgraded from 7 to 10 on my old HDD, since that's needed to validate the system to run 10 (as i understand). after the update finished, i cut the system off, pulled the plugs on the old HD, and installed the SSD. i installed windows 10 on the ssd from a flash drive then i cut my system off and plugged my old HDD back in. i've set boot priority in the bios so the ssd sits in front of the hd yet it still insist on booting from the hd.
i'm guessing i need to format the hd, but i cant figure out how to do that from the bios and i can't do it in windows because its running off of that. in my bios the HD is listed as UEFI
edit: gone to bios and the old drive was listed as windows boot manager or something like that. made sure the ssd was given highest priority and hit f8 to open boot manager. clicked that and now it boots from the SSD but cannot see the old drive within windows. i'm guessing thats because the old drive is UEFI?
