    Windows 10 Cloned a hdd but does not show in bios for boot, only in Legacy

    I have a Dell xps 8700 pc with Windows 10 installed. I cloned my new wd hdd from a ssd card. In the bios under UEFI boot the hdd does not show up in the boot order, but does show up in the Legacy boot order. I played around for a few hours with this but to no avail. Any help to get it to boot...
