Windows 10: I need your help! SSD not detected during windows installation.

Hello , so I have purchase an Acer laptop 3 days ago and today I wanted to install windows on it, but when I proceed with the installation the windows install doesn't detect my ssd. I've tried fixing it with cmd/diskpart/list disk/ but it detects only the USB form which I am installing the windows. Can you please help me? The Acer support doesn't work until monday and I need to use this laptop this week-end. Thanks!

Installing SSD not detected by BIOS

Sequence of installing new SSD.

1. Disconnected the HDD with Windows.
2. Fitted Syba 4 Sata PCI-E card
3. Fitted Samsung 500GB 860 SSD connected to Syba 4 Sata PCI-E card
4. Installed Windows 10 Home in Samsung 500GB 860 SSD

​Windows installed fine in the SSD. Entered the BIOS to set the SSD as 1st Boot priority but the BIOS has not detected it. The only boot devices shown in the BIOS are the CD/DVD Rom and the Replaceable Device. *Mad
Device Manager shows the SSD connected.
I connected the the HDD which still has Windows installed but I get the message to "Reboot and Select Boot Media" even though the SSD is still connected. *Eek
Any help would be most appreciated.

Just noticed while safe removing USB memory stick that the SSD shows as a removable drive C\:!!!! *Eek

 

Windows 7 x64 not detecting GTX295

Background
I installed the 295 and it was not detected. So I downloaded 181.22 for Vista x64, but those drivers didn't work for gaming (CTD). So I installed a GTX 8800 and it was detected and drivers installed automatically from Windows Update.

Now I put the 295 back in, and it installed and was able to run games. However, the nVidia control panel was not available, suggesting that the drivers hadn't installed properly... So I deleted the drivers and rebooted. And... again it lists my 295 as a "Standard VGA Graphics Adapter" and a "3D Video Controler", but no drivers can be found by Windows Update.

Question
1) Is there anywhere I can download the Windows 7 x64 drivers and install them manually?

2) Any idea how I can get Windows 7 to recognize my GTX295 so that it can download the proper drivers.

3) Have you had the GTX295 install automatically in Windows 7 x64?
