    Windows 10 won't boot after second drive install


    I have a 1tb m.2 with windows 10 and I was creating a sata ssd for my friend. I went through the normal process, the USB, setup, chose the correct disk and it worked perfectly fine, but now it recognizes my main drive as the second one and bios recognizes it as a bootable device but it won't boot, please help. I'll list some specs of the PC that could help with finding a solution. What I think it is is that it now thinks my m.2 is a second drive so it removed its ability to run windows.Motherboard gigabyte ds3h b450mCPU: AMD Ryzen 5 3400g
