There are way too many problems that happened after I moved or drove around across the country with my stuff. Everything was okay yesterday here is what happens: I turn on my computer and I get a message saying "preparing automatic repair"... but nothing comes out. It goes into a loop where it keeps restarting. All my hardware shows up correctly as if everything is detected properly. I took out all my RAM sticks and swapped them around. Nothing helped. I took out all my M.2 drives (even the one with Windows on it). Nothing changed. I re-created my Windows 11 installation bootable USB drive, but it doesn't load and then goes into a loop again. I tried using CMD commands like bcdedit and sfc /scannow. All of those things did nothing either. Anyone have any ideas what to do? At this point I just want a working computer and to reinstall Windows fresh... but I can't even do that.

Specs: MSI MAG B650 TOMAHAWK Ryzen 7800X3D 64GB Corsair RAM (3 sticks) M.2 SSDs with Windows on a Samsung 980 pro card RTX 3090 card Edit: I have UEFI enabled in my BIOS. I tried turning secure boot on and off. The USB installation just freezes and doesn't do anything at all. Edit #2: the BOOT EZ DEBUG LED light is glowing on my motherboard. I took out the M.2 that has Windows on it but I can still not access the Windows installation. Edit #3: after trying everything I tried doing a secure erase+ on the M.2 card with Windows on it again, the USB install just boots into a purple screen and that's all there is to it
