But if windows is on the hdd and I set the boot drive to be the ssd, what happens?

Well it wont work cos Windows is not on the SSD yet.

 

Reinstall onto the SSD after backing up your random C: files you have around,...from your current install (EG: My Documents = Some of your Game Saves, and other things you should know to backup or not /music-pics)

So my PC has a HDD for media and a SSD for programs I use a lot. I want my boot drive to be my SSD, and if that's the case, should Windows be installed on the SSD?
