I just bought a new samsung NVMe SSD m2 960 EVO and installed it to my Gigabyte Z170x Gaming-5 Motherboard. I read the manual and put it in the right slot so I could still use the other SATA Ports.

However, I installed windows was able to boot for the first time and installed the drivers. But when the PC rebooted, I got an error "Reboot and Select proper Boot Device" Or insert boot media....

I did install in UEFI mode and have the m2 drive set to the first boot priority and the only boot drive.

I read somewhere that the drivers for this device may need to be installed but I'm not sure what to do... Please help!
 
Solution
I FIXED IT

SOLVED::

What I had to do was unplug all Sata devices from their ports. I had 3 drives connected to the sata ports. I then reinstlaled windows 10 with these ports not plugged in and then ran the setup.

When i rebooted, I then plugged in the other SATA drives, installed drivers and this works!
