Windows only starts with Windows Boot Manager

[Icemanskis]

Hello,

My computer was working fine until I swapped out the PSU. When i restarted following the installation, the bios went straight to an reboot and select proper boot device message screen. I only have one solid state drive. The only way i can get windows to boot is to boot from windows boot manager. If i select the SSD at the first boot priority it goes back to the select proper boot device screen. Any idea where I should start?

Windows was loading perfectly fine before I switched out the PSU.

Thanks

The windows boot manager is on your SSD. Set it to boot from there.

I have two options for boot priority: SSD or Windows Boot Manager. When I select SSD it goes to the reboot error screen. Windows only loads with Boot Manager but it is super slow.

I would recommend a windows reinstall

can i simply use the Start > Settings > Update & Security > Recovery method to install? Will this wipe my SSD clean (i.e., do i need to backup my files?)? I dont have an installation CD.

Thanks

That "should" keep your files and such, however I would backup anything important. You can try that method. With a USB flash drive you can download windows free off of microsofts website.
