[Dell Inspiron 5675]Cannot change my boot order
I recently bought a Dell Inspiron 5675 with the following specs;
Ryzen 7 1700
RX 580
16GB Memory 2400Mhz
1TB HDD
I just upgraded my main storage from HDD to SSD using a Samsung 850 Evo 250GB and their Data Migration software. It managed to copy everything fine, up until it came around time to reboot. I noticed it wasn’t booting from the SSD and the HDD instead (which still has all my system files on it.) I was under the impression it would remove all those files and make my SSD priority to boot from. After searching around my BIOs (the rig is running InsydeH20 1.3.4) I noticed I cannot change the boot priority order for my computer. I have searched for answers everywhere and nothing has helped. This is pretty much my last stop ‘cause I keep getting “there are errors with your driver restart pc to fix” whenever I boot up windows from my SSD.

Enter the BIOS with F2. Go to the Boot Tab and enter "UEFI Boot:". Change the boot order with F5/F6.

The SSD isn’t the issue. The issue I’m having is changing my boot priority, which I can’t find in my BIOS/UEFI settings

Are you sure that the Samsung software formatted the SSD to GPT?

If you say so.
I have not seen a BIOS or UEFI in which the boot priority cannot be changed.

I'm in the middle of the exact same issue right now! Very annoying. I made a recovery drive, and I'm about to disconnect my HDD drive and reboot with only the SSD in. If it works I'll see if I can't reconnect the HDD drive as bulk storage. I read this advice elsewhere, and it seems to be working.
