Hi all,
I've been using a Samsung 840 EVO for my primary boot drive for awhile. Before that though I used a regular HDD that I still haven't deleted windows from. Whenever I boot up my PC, rather than starting Windows immediately it will always go to a boot screen asking me which hard drive I want to boot windows from. Is there a way for it to stop doing this? I've thought of just reformatting the hard drive but I have all my games, movies and music on it. I appreciate any help that I can get!

Alright well idk how big your SSD is but you should put all the programs (including games) on the SSD so that you can utilize the advantages of having a SSD. Either re install them on the SSD or you can buy another HDD and transfer everything you don't want to go on the SSD to the HDD, and then copy the partition over to the SSD.

You could also try using a cloud to upload all the data you don't want to be deleted. Google drive allows up to 15Gb's of free storage. Anything bigger you will most likely have to pay for.
