Hello guys, kindly does any one know how to get to Hard Disk Drive BBS Priorities (Bios Boot Priority.)
I installed an M SATA SSD 500GB Crucial in my laptop and I would like to prioritize it order as the main OS boot Manager. I have installed Windows 10 in it however while restarting it still does not recognize the M SATA SSD as the boot drive. Please help.

It is not quite clear.  Does the SSD have Windows 10 installed on it or is this the first start of the SSD?  Pressing F10 or Esc and then pick setup from the popup menu,  will allow you to enter the BIOS setup.  Start tapping F10 or Esc immediately after pressing the start button.  This should then show the SSD as a choice.  If it does not show up there, it is not recognized by the system.

Does the other drive still have an OS on it? You need to remove the other drive when installing Windows to the M.2.

I did a fresh clean installion from a DVD Drive and the MSATA is the only drive connected, and when I boot up the laptop simply cannot find a bootable drive. I googled the problem and I traced it to the above reference: UEFI Hard Disk Drive BBS Priorities.

 

The laptop is a HP Elitebook 8570w and if anyone can tell me how to get to advanced BIOS inorder to change BOOT DRIVE ORDER I will be very grateful.

As I stated earlier - Pressing F10 or Esc and then pick setup from the popup menu,  will allow you to enter the BIOS setup.  Start tapping F10 or Esc immediately after pressing the start button.  This should then show the SSD as a choice.  If it does not show up there, it is not recognized by the system.
