Are you saying if you remove the SM951, the PC will boot fine from the BX200 SSD?
What version of Windows are you using? If it is Windows 7 or 8 (not 8.1), then the problem is there is no NVMe driver for your NVMe SM951 built into Windows 7 or 8.
Let us know if you are using Win 7 or 8.
If you are using Win 8.1 or 10, then you should boot from your Windows installation media and run a Repair on the BX100 installation.
You may have installed Windows on that SSD with another drive running on the PC. The Windows installer will write the boot/system partition on another drive than the target OS drive.

I also made sure that the boot order is actually correct and the old SSD is first in line. I simply refuses to boot when the M.2 is connected. It goes past post, all I have is black screen with flashing text cursor in upper left corner (the underscore character '_'). |
