The M.2 NVMe PCIe device ceased functioning unexpectedly.
I encountered an unusual issue... After playing games, the next day everything seemed fine until I turned on my PC and saw that message (An operating system wasn’t found. Try disconnecting any drives that don’t contain an operating system). I’ve tried several solutions: moved my M.2 to another PC, which also showed the error; placed my brother’s M.2 in mine, but it didn’t work or appeared in BIOS; checked the BIOS for any indication, but nothing came up. I removed the CMOS battery for 15 minutes and reinserted it, but it didn’t help. Please, any advice would be appreciated—I have important data stored there.

unplugging the battery often fails. switch off the power supply, locate the two pins at the base of your board for BIOS/CC, and short them.
