Hello, I upgraded my Samsung SSD to a Kingston m2 NVMe drive and encountered several problems. First, after cloning with Macruim Reflect it wouldn’t boot. I tried again and still faced the same issues. The boot problem resolved temporarily, but now every startup boots into BIOS. No NVMe detection was found: https://prnt.sc/ywCM5KbwgFxz. I turn it off each time and Windows 11 works. The issue reappeared during the next Windows 11 boot, and I’m unsure what’s happening. https://prnt.sc/j0jNC2tmYIad https://prnt.sc/6rAbNIC3W-ww

You haven't removed the Samsung SSD, and both Samsung and Kingston appear as C drives.

Work harder next time, reinstall Windows after upgrading the SSD, and avoid cloning from the old drive.

Cloning is perfectly fine. I've done it several times without any problems, using Macrium, Samsung, and Acronis.

Yes, I understand cloning is acceptable, but you encountered an issue right now.
