Evening

Just done a clean install of Windows 10 from USB on a new SSD. Motherboard is an AsRock Z68 Pro3. All installed ok, however whenever I reboot I am greeted with the following:



'Windows boot manager' is set to 1 in the boot priority, with the SSD 2. I have tried swapping these around with no joy. If I click windows boot manager it boots up fine.

Any ideas?

Thanks :)

Windows Boot Manager is the correct boot entry.

I assume you installed Win 10 from a USB flash drive using a Win 10 ISO file?

If so, it seems you did not select an entry in the boot order for the USB Win 10 installation media. That entry was, "UEFI: <flash drive name>". There was also an "AHCI:" entry for the USB flash drive.

The "UEFI:" entry is not wrong at all. Actually in using that you "chose" to use the EFI bootloader instead of the Legacy bootloader. Nothing wrong with that either, better actually.

What SSD are you using?

Why are you concerned about that entry in the Boot order? Just never saw one like that in the past?

" rel="nofollow - Thanks for the reply.

Yes I installed windows from a USB Iso.  Its a clean install on a Crucial MX300 750GB.

The problem is that this screen pops up everytime I start windows, rather than just booting straight in.

I also noticed this morning that the SSD has been formatted as MBR and is booting in Legacy mode?
