I've cloned my old HDD to my new SSD, and I've tried to set the SSD as the main boot drive by changing the boot priority in the BIOS. However, both Task Manager and Disk Management indicate that the old HDD is still the boot drive. I checked everything, but I don't see any differences in the copied files, and the BIOS shows that the SSD has priority. What could be causing this issue? Thanks for any help!

Have you tried checking inside Disk Management to see what it lists for your drives? Sometimes the system still defaults to the old drive even after making changes. If you can, share a screenshot of that. It might help pinpoint the problem.
From what you've described, it might be that the SSD isn't marked as 'active' in Disk Management. You might need to set the SSD as the active partition to make it bootable. Once you have that set, it should ideally start from the SSD.
