Hey there! It sounds like you're dealing with a tricky setup issue. Since your BIOS doesn't support disabling secure boot, you might want to try a different approach—like checking if the SSD is properly seated or ensuring the correct firmware version is installed. Also, make sure your laptop's power settings allow the SSD to be used as the primary drive. If the problem persists, contacting the manufacturer's support with your model details could help.

You own a USB stick and a DVD, but neither one is functioning properly.

What SSD did you purchase? Consider checking the BIOS settings to confirm it's operating in AHCI mode without RAID. Also, ask about the method used to install Windows on the CD or USB drive.
