mobo:MSI B150 PC MATE
mobo bios version: C.10
ssd: Adata 512gb
hdd: 1tb WD Blue
cpu: i5 6600k
os:windows 10 64bit

First of all, this pc has worked fine for nearly 2 years. Today I started it up and instead of booting windows it booted me to the EFI Shell. I tried to diagnose what the problem was in the bios. I see both my hdd and ssd correctly displayed under the sata devices menu. I believe the problem is with my boot order settings. The top priority is UEFI HDD and i do not see any sdd listed. Even weirder, if I go down into the BBS priority option, I only see Windows Boot manager or disable. So I turned on windows boot manager and now the top boot priority is UEFI HDD : Windows boot manager. Finally this seemed to correct the problem and my pc will boot.

Even though it runs for now I am worried my motherboard is giving out. I have never had to use this BBS priority option to boot a pc before. Also, I am worried because I do not see my ssd or normal hdd listed in the boot order. I just see generic terms like UEFI HDD And UEFI USB and UEFI cd.

Correct me if i am wrong, but shouldn't the first priority be UEFI SSD ADATA 512 or something like that. This is how it has always been on my other computers. I am worried this is my motherboards first sign of a slow death..

UPDATE: Here is screenshots, let me know if the boot order looks normal

got back into it, im uploading pictures of my bios now. I don't think it is showing my ssd correctly in the boot order. Last I remember setting it up the top priority was ADATA SSD not some generic UEFI HDD name
 

Is your ADATA SSD listed in Windows "Device Manager"?
