NVMe Dual Boot

[LiverpoolLee]

 I have installed Win 11 on NVMe M.2 drive with a SSD attached to another port. It boots in Dual Boot mode, It wont boot without the SSD attached. I don't know how I have managed this, I just want to have the NVMe drive as main boot.

 

I was also wondering does this effect performance of the drive?

Most likely your bootloader files ended up in the SSD.

Try looking in Windows Disk Management and see if there's an EFI partition in the SSD.

Yes there is an EFI partition on the SSD (not the one I want to boot from) is there anyway I can fix this or will I have to backup and re-install?

Try this post on elevenforums (the page is midway through the topic, you might want to start from page one) it shows the steps to create/ move the EFI partition & files, it might be what you need to save a re install.
