I asked how you booted the disk to install to the SSD since you say you cannot now boot a disk. It's not a trick question.
And if you'll look at your Disk Mgmt screenshot you can see that the EFI System partition is following C, something I've never seen before. How did you deal with partitions when you got to that step? Was the disk pre-partitioned or did you create those two? Try to remember exactly what transpired because it is freakish.
OK the installer autostarted because the Ssd was blank, to be expected.
So can you access the BIOS or it's one-time Boot Menu (f2 or F12) when you unplug the HD, SSD and/or the flash stick installer or DVD drive?

OK I think the problem is solved, I took out the HDD and just booted with the SSD and now I can access the boot priority settings, I connected the HDD back up and its still allowing me to access it.
Thanks for the advice, as always its top notch on here.
Nice call David. I'd rep you again but you're one I've often gotta wait awhile
No problem Greg, thanks for the thought, much appreciated :)
You did more than me to help solve this - you deserve the rep

If you're happy with the way the PC is working, create a Backup Image so you can quickly/easily recover...
