SSD m.2 complete wipe boot into usb

Nestor95

Hello, I deleted the partitions and formated my m.2 SSD and now windows crashes. I was using the iso creation tool from windows  T o setup windows and it never completed. During this process the the computer restarted by itself. Now Windows does a crashing loop to where I can't get to the desktop. I just get a brief windows logo and then it'll restart. There is nothing I can do. I've been on calls 4 with Microsoft technical support. I already tried using a usb windows iso and that doesn't work. It wont let me get into windows setup I can not boot into the iso file. Yes, I have the drive formated to ntsf. I am completely stuck. Even when I boot into safe mode doesn't go to desktop. from windows restarting 3 times. All of the options do nothing when I click on the f functions  it the screen flickers and nothing happens. I think windows was corrupted and there is no way for me to proceed with fixing windows. I just need to wipe my SSD m.2 drive completely to then boot into window creation tool the USB iso. 

 

I am looking for a program that can wipe the m.2 SSD drives completely leaving no trace of windows so that I can install windows with a usb Iso. I would like to download it to a USB and then boot into the USB. I can in no way log into windows desktop or any other option.

I'd recommend using diskpart to clean the drive. It is already on your Windows 10 installer, so you don't need to create a new bootable USB. You can see examples of how to launch, and use, diskpart here:

Edit:

Here is another good resource, once you've booted to diskpart, this talks about specific steps to clean the drive:

Hello and thank you for helping. I followed the instructions to get into windows recovery mode. Which was unsuccessful the keys did nothing. 

 

I have uploaded a video of what the computer does. In the video I didn't hold the keys down. Just wanted to show what the effect is. https://streamable.com/91nkzx

It looked like you were trying to recover the disk without wiping it and then boot into it. I'd suggest:

1. Use your Windows 10 installation USB to boot the system, then enter recovery mode from the USB stick.

2. Use diskpart, running off the USB stick, to completely erase all partitions and formatting from your internal SSD

3. Use your Windows 10 installation USB stick to reinstall windows onto your internal SSD

 

If after all the above, your system still fails to boot, then you may have a dead/corrupted ssd that's not repairable.

I am able to get into the X570 aorus master bios and choose which drive to boot into, but as the video shows it doesn't even make it to that point. Windows crashes and I'm not even able to get to the windows creation usb drive. 

 

In the video I waited maybe 2 or 3 minutes I think it crashed or froze as nothing happened.
