Hi!
So about a month ago my computer suddenly went into BIOS by itself, and it seems to be stuck like that. When i try to reboot it nothing happens.
I noticed that it had switched to the HDD as the booting option, so i tried to switch back. But to my surprise, the SSD didn´t come up as an option...
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Did you clone the ssd from the hdd? This may have left the boot partition on the hdd, meaning that the hdd is the boot device and the ssd is the system drive (not ideal - easiest way to fix would be a windows reinstall on the ssd, and backing up then formatting the hdd).

I had intermittent problems like yours, and it turned out the win 10 boot sector was corrupted and couldn't be repaired. A fresh installation of windows cured that for me.
