So I've had a problem for the last few months that the bios screen for my board shows twice before actually loading into windows. 

I noticed the boot order is set as UEFI/Hard Drive as #1 priority.

I tried setting this to just the hard drive but I get an error that says 'Reboot and select proper boot device or insert media in selected boot device and press a key'

 

I did everything in this video. My drive is in SATA port 2 which I dont think matters

It actually might matter in some cases. Put it to the first SATA port, which should be called SATA 0, or if that's not present, SATA 1. Won't hurt and might prevent some issues.

Put it back into SATA1, no change

The easiest fix would be simply reinstalling Windows, otherwise you have to play with bootmgr most likely

Like a clean install or a re-install while keeping files?

I think your issue is that you have 1 partition that is a system reserved on your HDD, while windows is installed on your other drive. Go into your storage manager and look at your partitions and see if that is the case
