Windows 10: Boot drive upgrade went smooth...almost

Cloned my Gigabyte Z390UD Samsung 500Gb SSD to a new Samsung SSD 980 1Tb NVMe M.2 in the mobo M.2 slot. Used the Samsung software that they offered and done in 30 mins. It expanded the C drive and picked up the drive as the boot drive but I had to select it as the boot drive on reboot. Drive Mgr showed the drive OK as I had disconnected my old 500Gb drive. Now for reboots, I have to go into boot drives and select it. The drive does not show up in available boot drives in the BIOS. Everything else seems fine. I researched in this and other forums but they mostly talk abt mobos not supporting the drive and other stuff not related to my issue. If I dig into the BIOS, I can select NVMe drives and it shows it, but it is not in the boot menu. What is there to make my BIOS load it in the boot menu? Win 10 21H1...1055

What is smooth scrolling?

Hi Kenneth,

Smooth scrolling is a feature available in Internet Explorer that allows you to scroll through a web pages smoothly, as the name of the feature suggests. If this is turned off, when scrolling through a web page, you'll notice that the scroll
bar slides down as if it's slightly delayed, but if this is turned on, the scroll bar slides down smoothly, without delay.

This is useful when scanning through long web pages or articles.

To turn on/off smooth scrolling, see the following steps:

• Open Internet Explorer, click the gear icon, and then click
  Internet Options.
  
• Click on the Advanced tab.
• Locate Use smooth scrolling, and tick the check box if you want it turned on/off.

Let us know if you have further questions.

Stuck in Windows 10 Upgrade

My computer seems to be stuck in a Windows 10 failed upgrade loop. I was running fine on a beta version of Windows 10, and then I came downstairs one morning to see it repeatedly booting, attempting to repair, then rebooting. The steps I've taken to diagnose are:

• Attempting to boot off a USB drive (with all drives disabled in BIOS) - this fails at the point of the blue windows screen
  
• Attempting to boot the machine itself and getting into "repair/safe mode" using F7
  
• Looking at the BIOS for obvious failures (e.g. RAM that should be there is missing) - nothing obvious is wrong.
  

I am fairly certain the build version was 9926. For many months, the system would attempt to upgrade, and then say "it failed" for some reason and roll back.

Suggestions for next steps?
