Is your drive seen in the list of devices detected on the post screen? If this is being seen on a new build it's possible the data if plugged in? unless forgotten or power plug is bad or left off. If you are seeing the drive at post time that would be ruled out and a need to review the boot order comes in.
If you have more then one hard drive the key is to go into the boot or hoot order section seen in the bios setup. Once you scroll down to hard drives and highlight that press the enter key. This will bring up the list of drives installed if they are detected where you then use the information seen to the far right like - and + keys on the numpad to rearrange the order of drives bringing that one to the top.
From there simply exit the bios with the F10 key or press ESC and then select the exit and save option to save the change made. The system will then restart.
If the drive or cable is no good that would also explain the lack of a boot device found seeing a restart. But you saw all setup files copied showing the drive works. It sounds like a boot configuration problem more then anything else there since the Windows setup restarted the system for you after completing that stage.
