[SOLVED] Windows is installed on my SSD but my PC won't boot if that device is selected

I've installed Windows 10 on my ssd (Samsung 860 EVO 250gb), but when it's selected as my boot device in my bios, I get the "select proper boot device" error. Windows will load though if I select my HDD (WD Digital Blue 1TB) as the boot device in my BIOS. Is this error on my end? Am I missing something? I've checked through command prompt and my SSD is definitely the device Windows is installed on and partitioned correctly.

Additionally, sometimes I have a BSOD error (code 0xc000000e ) which only happens about 40% of the time I start up my PC, and goes away after just turning the PC on and off again.

Is there a fix to this? Am I missing something simple?
 
Solution
Right.
That "System Reserved" on Disk 0 is th actual boot partition. Even though actual Windows lives on Disk 1.

This is why we always recommend having only one drive connected when you do the OS install.
