Windows 10: Error code 0xc000000e shows when secondary HDD is connected.

Hi, I have installed Windows 10 on my new SSD and the windows works fine. When I connect my secondary HDD, Windows won't start. It shows 0xc000000e error code. I have to manually select the SSD on boot menu every time I restart. I checked my boot priority list and set to SSD and disabled the HDD from the boot menu. But no luck so far. When I disconnect the HDD Windows starts fine. No error codes. I know 0xc000000e error is usually the BCD issue but in this case it's probably the secondary hard drive. How can I resolve this please? TIA

:)

The boot error 0xc000000e on Windows seems quite irritating as the user finds difficult to load the operating system normally. It mainly occurs due to uncertain shutdown or restart of the computer which may be because of power failure or sudden system crash thereby making the boot configuration data corrupt. I will explain you how to repair the boot configuration data.
1) Insert the Windows installation bootable disk and open the command prompt through it.

2) Execute the following commands one by one
bootrec/fixmbr
bootrec/fixboot
bootrec/rebuildbcd


3) Wait for the process to be completed and then Restart your PC.
