I just replaced my pc except for the hard drive with windows 10 on it. When I turned the pc on it brought me to a menu were I could go to the bios or boot it up or other stuff. I went to the boot option but it brought me to bios. So I exited and save but then it comes right back to the bios. Pls help
My motherboard is a gigabyte b360M Ds3h

Most likely, especially if the system is not the same chipset, you will need to reinstall Windows. Storage controllers, chipset drivers and many other particulars will be different from one chipset to another and while sometimes it will work just swapping the OS to a new configuration, often it will not.

You may wish to try turning off the power, removing the CMOS battery from the motherboard for a few minutes, then putting it back and powering back on to see if the BIOS will reset the hardware tables and allow the system to boot. Also, make sure that in the bios you either have the drive Windows is installed on or Windows boot manager selected as the primary boot device.
