Windows 10: SSD not showing in BIOS and continuously entering BIOS and not exiting

I recently installed windows 11 in my laptop System Model ROG Strix G531GT_G531GT which was window 11 eligible laptop model. Installation was fine, but when I shutdown the pc and started again later it directly went to BIOS, I tried save and exit, retore to default, SATA management to ASCI which was the only option but nothing worked. It was not showing my ssd inside bios configurations. I opened my laptop, disconnected the battery pin and rebooted again, it got started, windows 11 was loaded.

BIOS SSD Priority

I am going to change out my HDD to a SSD. Right now the BIOS does not have a SSD listed in the BIOS boot priority. Does the SSD show up in the BIOS after the SSD is plugged in? Or is there some command prompt that I can use to add SSD prior to plugging in the SSD?

 

SSD working properly, not showing up in boot order in BIOS

I'm currently still on Windows 10, as I performed a roll-back by wiping my SSD and using a third-party data migration tool to move an older version of Windows 10 to the SSD.

As of right now, Windows UEFI reads my storage and states my drive is healthy, will show up as the main boot drive on BIOS settings, and Windows will launch correctly so as long as my HDD is disabled or unmounted. However, once I enable the HDD, the system forcibly launches from the HDD. I go into BIOS to change boot order, and the SSD is not listed in the available drives to boot. From there, if I exit without changing or saving any settings in BIOS, the system then somehow automatically jumps to the SSD as intended.

In summary, it appears as though my computer will not boot from my SSD unless I unmount/disable the factory HDD, or if I launch either the BIOS or UEFI and exit without changing anything.
