However, after the update I encountered an error stating (No Boot Device). I’m still puzzled because I can’t recall whether it was “No Boot Device” or “No Boot Drive,” making me unsure if the hard drive is damaged or just corrupted. I attempted to reinstall using a USB drive, but when prompted, it suggested choosing a drive labeled “Drive 0.” It then displayed “No storage” and said I couldn’t create one with more than 0MB, which confused me. I tried opening the Command Prompt to reset things, but it incorrectly selected the USB drive (X as the primary drive, then reported an invalid drive error when I tried to plug it back in.

It's a laptop, which makes the process a bit tricky. I'll give it a shot. When I start the installation via USB or something similar, I can access my PC and find a drive named "Boot." If I connect a USB, it appears there. I can also try connecting it directly to my PC.
