Get into your bios,

Find your boot order option,

Find your Samsung SSD,

Save then reboot your computer.

That's mean i should put it on the top? or something

JustifyHerko · Jul 1, 2016

Yeah, I mean not literally. Select your SSD as your primary boot drive instead of your normal hard drive or CD drive.

All of this via the bios

MarcusCody :

No problem man, glad I could help

MarcusCody · Jul 1, 2016

Wait , why i cant change anything in the bios tab

JustifyHerko · Jul 1, 2016

Your first drive should be your SSD, which should boot up windows.

Did you reboot after saving your ssd as boot device?

MarcusCody · Jul 1, 2016

No my first drive is Window boot manager
Second is my SSD, do i need to move it to first?

And i cant move it to first as my boot device

When I did my boot to my SSD, I used this as reference. It allowed me to select it via boot manager

But i cant even see my hard drive on the bios,
First : window boot manager
Second : CD/DVD rom
third : removeable device

Yeah the "Removable device" just means that your motherboard supports hot swapping of hard drives. You can disable the AHCI feature on your motherboard and it should disappear. Then come up as the hard disk name
