Can't boot into windows

[cortexcortex]

Hello,

I brought back my m.2 SSD from my other PC, the SSD has windows installed.

Thing is, my motherboard won't read it as Windows Boot Manager.

It just says 1TB Samsung 970 PRO.

When I enter ASUS EZFlash, I can see all my windows files in my disk.

I booted into my PC from my HDD; I see everything.

My question is how can I boot from the m.2 SSD – fix the problem I'm having?

Thank much for your time

yeah I've tried literally everything lol.

 

EDIT: maybe not everything but I tried disabling CSM, unplugging everything, messing around in BIOS, disabling secure boot..

I'm just super pissed.

Don't know what to do and I can't find anything on Google to help my needs. 

Hopefully one of you knows what's going on

Are you in UEFI or Legacy mode?

It's possible that your m.2 doesn't contain boot loader. Common problem when people buying new drive, made new Windows installation and Windows uses existing boot loader (located on old drive).

 

Google "how to add bootloader" or "missing efi boot partition" and you'll get many tutorials.

I updated my BIOS. Before that, it wouldn't even read the SSD.

I tried both UEFI and Legacy mode.

Nothing changes. My SSD just appears as a drive with no partition/windows boot manager, it's laying there in a comma.

It's very sad for her honestly.

So much time, so much surgery, so many medicaments to treat this disease.

Nothing works

My prayers to this.
