Experience a boot loop accompanied by a blue screen of death.
Your machine is stuck in a continuous startup cycle, attempting fixes before displaying the blue screen. It sounds like a serious issue—maybe you need to reset it or check for hardware problems. Have you considered reinstalling Windows as a last resort?
I think there's a significant chance that your SSD/HDD containing your Windows installation is faulty. So long as you're not looking to attempt any data recovery, yes, go ahead and wipe and reinstall Windows to the drive, but if it happens again or fails, I think you probably need to replace the drive.
it seems your hard drive might be damaged or failing severely. I recommend stopping its use immediately and purchasing a replacement. Install Windows and consider using an external enclosure to safely recover vital information from the old drive.
You can skip an external enclosure when there are sufficient ports for both new and existing disks.
I thought I could fix everything right away. But now it’s saying it won’t install on the NVMe drive because it’s pointing to the MBR.
I resolved the issue by removing the drive and then reinstalling it. It should now work properly.
Insert the old storage device briefly to access the needed information. I wouldn’t think the drive would last much longer, especially since my previous 2TB HDD caused similar problems before failure—it was really frustrating trying to recover nearly 2TB of data from it.
