Windows 10: After fresh Windows 10 install on new SSD my dual WIn10 boot got borked.

Greetings,

I had previously a dual WIN10 on my PC - each OS was installed on seperate SSDs , one I kept as a reserve in case of problems etc. So on startup both OS was shown in the boot screen.
I recently upgraded my pc everything besides the harddisks, all was still fine but I didn't do a fresh install - since I migrated from INTEL to AMD ...and my SSD was nearing capacity I decided to do a fresh install on a new SSD - that went fine. The only thing now is that me secondary OS is no longer visible as a boot option, I tried booting from the secondary OS SSD but got the following error:

Reboot and Select proper Boot device
or Insert Boot media in selected Boot Device

In the BIOS I'm only seeing the new SSD in the Windows Boot Manager.




Did my fresh install somehow affect the secondary OS on the other SSD rendering it useless??

Thanks in advance!

:)

windows 10 slow boot

I was having a slow boot issue on my Windows 7 install a little while back. It would take about 30 - 40 extra seconds to boot up for whatever reason.

I would try following these steps, while this didn't solve my issue, it did increase Read/Write to where it should be.

In the end, I had to reinstall my Windows 7 entirely to fix the booting issue. It was taking around 35 seconds to boot, and after the fresh install it takes about 7 seconds to boot.
