Hi,

I had a CPU die on me so I got a new Mobo and CPU and reinstalled everything in the case.

System:

Corsair 760t Graphite Case
Intel® Core™ i9-9600KF CPU
Corsair Dominator Platinum 64GB DDR4 @ 3200 MHZ 4x16
ASUS Maximus Xi Hero Wi Fi
Samsung 960 Pro 1TB M.2
EVGA SuperNOVA 1200 P2
Windows 10
2xNvidia Titan X Pascal 12GB

In the Bios utility it recognizes the Samsung SSD (only drive I have)

When I hit save and exit in the BIOS it restarts and goes back into the Bios.

I am not sure how to get it to select the Samsung drive to boot to Windows (or if in fact that is the issue)

i’m sure I have forgotten something pretty basic and dumb.

Thanks

However - another question - can i use the current drive for a data drive if i get another drive to use as the boot drive? I.e. can I save whats on the drive? Or is it going to be lost.
