Hello everyone! I recently upgraded my old PC with the following setup: a Ryzen 5 3600x, Asus Prime b450m, 16GB RAM, XPG 3000MHz, 480GB NVMe SSD. I made a UEFI bootable pendrive using Windows 10 to transfer the OS onto the new SSD. The installation went smoothly once I disabled secure boot and set Windows to install another OS. However, when trying to boot from the SSD, it keeps returning to the BIOS screen despite showing it as a bootable option. Changing the format from MBR to GPT didn’t help either. Since the SSD is now the only drive, I’m unsure what else I can do to get the OS running. Please help me out!

Check the Clear CMOS and restart the SSD once more? It might not have set up the drive correctly, so clearing the settings and trying again could help.

I didn't set up a partition; I chose the SSD directly. Need to make a partition?
