Z590-A Can't find Windows, but does see the SSD

My new Z590-A can't get past the BIOS screens, it recognizes the SSD that has Windows 10 on it, but says no bootable drives.
SSD is on SATA6G1
BIOS ver 0707
new Intel i5 10600KF cpu
Thanks!*

It runs out you can't just move your old drive with windows from one MoBo to another. You have to reinstall Windows 10!

I figured that out the hard way, spent hours googling the problem and hooked/inhooked drives, updated Bios, changed Bios stuff, but no one said you had to re-install Windows.
When you search for drive showing up in Bios but not booting, there is a whole bunch of site showing you how to fix that, but it seems they all assume you had already installed/reinstalled Windows on your drive in your brand new board and it's a goose chase.
