Hi! I notice my PC boots normally most of the time, but sometimes it shows a "Reboot and Select Proper Boot Device" warning. Right now I fix it by powering off the machine and restarting it, which seems to help. I’m wondering if there’s a more lasting solution for this problem.

Have you verified the drive's condition?

Yes, I verified. The SSD condition is at 100%. I recently purchased the whole PC and everything is brand new.

Yes, there is a single hard drive that remains in good condition.

What I wondered is whether the system would start if the HDD is removed or disabled in BIOS. It's possible the boot process involves both drives, and if one is much slower, it might not initiate quickly enough.

However, Windows is set up on the SSD. The HDD shouldn't interfere with the boot process because it should start from the SSD directly.

When there are sections in the HDD, it's advisable to connect only a single disk during OS installation.

Yes, you may need to reinstall Windows with the HDD removed. This could be the only way to proceed, especially since installing the OS and software can take a long time.

Attempt the fix without an HDD initially, as there are methods to resolve the boot issue without reinstalling Windows.
Learn how to repair the Windows bootloader on a modern system with UEFI, moving away from traditional BIOS and GPT disk settings (instead…).
