Problem On Installing New SSD

So I just put my new SSD in my PC and installed my OS on it (windows 7) when I booted the system into bios my original hard disk didn't show up. I ignored this and proceeded to boot off my SSD, except it booted off my hard disk instead. I looked at my drives and noticed that my hard disk was still my c: drive and my SSD was my e: drive. Does anybody know how to fix this. I tried unplugging my hard disks sata cable and booted from my SSD to change the SSD c: and change the hard disk to e: but when I boot my keyboard and mouse don't function. If anyone could help it would be very appreciated.

Thanks, Scott.

Unplug your HDD and keep SSD in

Hope I could help!

I tried this but my keyboard and mouse won't function so I am not able to log on my account.

Unplug the HDD but use a PS2 keyboard

Hope I could help!

I'm not sure my motherboard has a ps2 connector. I also have a qpad mk80 that I haven't tried yet, it has a ps2 and a usb, I usually use the ps2 to usb connector, I assume the other usb is just for the LEDs.
