I need your help with this because I have been trying to get my desktop working again but for some reasons the bios settings show me with top is CD/DVD Rom but I don't want this and trying to change to SSD from CD/DVD Rom in bios order. I thought that I did make the changes but still show that the CD/DVD Rom is on top of the BIOS settings. Now my question is that with one word " Removable devices " and is that for SSD? Because I don't see on the BIOS Settings with SSD so I assumed that would be Removable devices. I hope I am right with this. Yes I did googled about how to change the BIOS Settings for Windows 7.
Your help would be appreciated
Thank you,
John

Your SSD should appear as an internal hard drive if attached to the internal SATA ports. Your CD/DVD in the boot order as #1 is not an issue as you want to be able to boot from a CD/DVD if it inserted. If no disc is present, the PC will move to the next device in the boot order. -steve

Ok before I go further with this and I disconnect the cable between the hard drive and power supply also SATA cable. All I want is to have with Solid State Drive in the desktop for now also CD/DVD ROM too but never see one before right on the top with the word " UEFI " in boot order. So you think that is a problem because I disconnect the cables from the hard drive that couldn't go further into Windows logon as you can see on the screen. Or should I disconnect the cables from SSD and connect the hard drive to see if that will work? I know it all depends on anything.

Want to tell you all whoever will read my messages. Anyway the problem is solved and I did not do it right at the first time. At second time I did it differently and works.
Smile,
John

Glad that you solved the issue but would advise that you leave the CD/DVD drive as the first boot device.

Yes I realized that and that is why I have to read different articles on the internet about BIOS settings and mentioned that CD/DVD ROM is the first boot option before anything else. I thought at first with my SSD is first boot option but I am wrong. It's a good thing to read different articles on the internet and see what they have to say. It helped me to understand this.
Smile,
John
