Click on the new drive that you want to install Windows to, then click on "delete partition". Now your drive will have turned into "unallocated space"; click that and it will allow you to install Windows there.

I just resetted my BIOS settings to default (Don't ask) And now whenever I boot a message comes up saying ,,Reboot and Select proper Boot device or Insert Boot Media in selected Boot device and press a key. 

Here are some screenshots

Go to boot and choose whatever drive you have windows on to boot first.

Well , I bought this computer from the internet , I didn't build it myself. Sadly I don't have a windows install disk. I was using Windows 10. I can get the Windows Media creator tool and see if I can fix anything.

Try enabling fast boot (temporarily).

The thing is I already had Windows installed on that hard drive and it was my main drive. 

Now I really don't know what is going to happen , since I had pretty much all of my important data there

 is there any chance it could have gotten deleted?

Well it seems as my newer hard drive is not even being recognised. only my old one. And whenever I try to install windows on my old drive it says it has to be a different type drive. How can I even change the type of it if I can't access the disk manager ? I checked it , everything is plugged in alright. wtf is happening I just wanted to install some RAM

Click on the new drive that you want to install Windows to, then click on "delete partition". Now your drive will have turned into "unallocated space"; click that and it will allow you to install Windows there.
