Unable to boot into windows

Syaoran

Hi first of, I'm currently typing this on mobile so I'll try my best to format this post

 

So anyways, I changed motherboards (new one is Asrock B450M steel legend), it booted into windows fine the first time but then, I did a restart.

And all I got was this:

My previous motherboard, Gigabyte AB350M Gaming 3, did the same thing but I was able to choose windows from the boot device list from the bios. It was a blacked out option with no words on it, nothing like that shows up on my new motherboard

So now how do I get back into windows? Is there any sort of command I can do in command prompt with a windows install USB?

 

REALLY want to avoid reinstalling windows, I'll leave that as a VERY last option.

 

Some helpful(?) pictures:

What happens if you manually boot to the SSD? Does your BIOS recognize your SSD/drive?

I am getting pretty fucking sick and tired of the "watch something else" responses. It's such a cop out answer because you could say that about basically anything, and it doesn't address the actual complaints. People use it as some kind of card they pull when they can't actually respond to the criticism raised but they still feel like they need to defend some company/person. If you don't like this thread then stop reading it. See how stupid it is? It's basically like telling someone "shut the fuck up". It's not a clever responsive, it doesn't address anything said, and it is rude.

It should be on my SSD but it came up as a separate option in my old motherboard 

 

Specs in my bio, besides the Gigabyte motherboard

I think you still need to answer if the boot drive shows up in the BIOS.

Nope, I get the "reboot and select proper boot device" for both ssd and hard drive

No lol

Well, can you move the drive to a different slot/port? Does it work/show up in another PC?

Yup tried other ports and nothing

I put the ssd back in the old motherboard and I'm currently in windows

In the old motherboard this is how I get into windows (pic below), I click where the red highlighted option is, above Samsung SSD. The question is how do I get that to show up in the new motherboard
