Okay so the explaination of this probably won't be the best as I always have trouble putting my thoughts into words. So whenever I boot my PC I get an error saying "Reboot and select proper boot device or insert boot media in selected boot device and press a key". Without fail if my PC is off, I will get this error message. The fix for me has been easy. If I just enter UEFI on start up and reboot, I am completely fine. I am just worries I have a broken part and don't want anything to get worse. What should I do? So far I haven't done anything to try to fix this except make sure all of my wires are secured in tightly.

did you set the SSD as your boot drive?

 

its look like the BIOS is searching for the boot drive but fails and tell you to select boot device or boot media

That's what I was thinking myself, it is selected. I'm gonna try to partition it like pengus41 said

 

If you did set the SSD as your boot drive then try partitioning the drive... That you are booting on. That MIGHT fix it.

Also make sure you have a valid windows license and you have not used the DVD/CD/USB more that 3 times.

I am gonna try partition it now. Yeah the license is valid and this is the only computer its even been used on.

Oh i just thought, maybe you need to change the boot priority in the BIOS to the SSD if thats what you boot on.
