The Windows 10 SSD isn't listed among the available boot options.
Hello, I just assembled my initial PC and everything proceeded without issues until I tried to boot into Windows. I’ve reviewed the BIOS several times and the SSD appears but isn’t recognized as a bootable drive. The SSD was from my previous Dell PreBuild system, and I also verified there’s no evidence of bricking it—when connected to my old PC it functions normally. My current build uses a Gigabyte Aorus z690 Elite ddr4 motherboard, paired with a Samsung 860 Evo SSD.
Consider an alternative method. Reinsert the SSD into the older setup. Follow this manual (https://www.windowscentral.com/how-conve...windows-10) to transform your disk into a GPT format. Afterward, install it in your updated system and hope for success.
