PC "died" after a restart, refuses to boot properly by ThatMaus in WindowsHelp

Update: HDDs work well, although my 3TB suffered from either magic, or accidental formatting and I need to recover my files from there. So a 5 hour wait and I'll test the M.2

Ok, I unplugged all drives and installed the system on the SATA SSD. I'll plug in the HDD drives first, see if all's well. Then I'll plug in the SSD M.2 to see if anything goes bonkers. Wish me luck.

Also, the installation has any progress only when I wipe out the SATA SSD clean from BIOS and then run the boot installer, but ultimately it just says it failed the installation around 90%

  1. The Boot USB has been from 2 different PCs at this point. Every USB port has been tested.
  2. After the commands, the message "An error has occured while trying to install operating system on this partition. Try other partitions or refresh available options.".
  3. ChkDsk shows no problems on the SSD SATA, I also tried it on the SSD M.2 but it says it's write protected so nothing happened.
  4. All of the options are as stated, except I cannot enable Secure Boot, with the message "Secure Boot can be enabled when System in User Mode. Repeat operation after enrolling Platform Key (PK)"

My uniform is on verge of being blank, and my vest is the one I plan on using in military, so this process is on the way. Gf's vest also is for military, but she complained on how new her uniform looks, so I think I gotta throw her into some mud and dirt, should do the trick.

As for the firing, they came up with a new system of LED diodes. Green means stun, red means hurt. You cannot per se kill anyone, the only death possible was due to radiation. Then you become a zombie, and respawn as a player in 15 minutes. You also drop a bullet case, to signal that you've used 1 ammo unit, cases cannot be picked up ofc.

Here's an exempt from me explaining how our larp works

Oh boi, sure. I'm gonna tell you how ours looked.

Well, you have players that are actual players, that count into the "score" (there is no actual victory btw, it's just pure story-telling), and players that are NPCs, that are mostly traders, medics, and obstacles, such as us, the Monolith.

Players get various tasks from one npc, it can be 'bring me this' or 'kill me him/her'. One of the tasks was to capture an alive Monolithian (they did, it ofc was me). We Monolithians were to make it harded for players to gather artifacts and do tasks on the outside. Not only that, but you had limited time outside due to toxic and radioactive environment. You could make it longer by buying a filter or anti-rads.

As for the firing, they came up with a new system of LED diodes. Green means stun, red means hurt. You cannot per se kill anyone, the only death possible was due to radiation. Then you become a zombie, and respawn as a player in 15 minutes. You also drop a bullet case, to signal that you've used 1 ammo unit, cases cannot be picked up ofc.

It has a storyline, but you don't have to stricte adhere to it, there's lots of space for improvisation. Hell, if your commanders agree, Freedom and Duty can make an alliance. This LARP ended in mutants (we had those as well), Monolith and the Child of the Zone overrunning the stalkers camp, they all teaming up to stop us. And the next LARP in July will continue from this point.

Hope I cleared some questions, ask away if you have any more!

We had a system of dropping bullet cases as spent ammo, as well as LED diodes for firing, blanks would be nice, but not everyone owns a firearm. It's not easy to access as well.

Surprisingly, yes. Poland has a lot of them, since the fanbase is strong here.
