Boot Help

[Tyler C]

Alright y'all I'm in need of some help. I took my wife PC apart yesterday for cleaning and to verify some part info. After the rebuild we turned it on to make sure it works and no boot. I have windows installed on the m.2 nvme drive and for a while I couldn't even get the drive to show in the bios. after some fiddling it shows up now but when I boot to it it says there is nothing on it. I plugged in a USB boot drive with Linux on it and I can see the m.2 and it shows that the windows files are still there. I don't know what the hell happened to it. Let me know if you need more info to help us, Please help.

Have you enabled UEFI? If it's already enabled, try disabling it.

try normal BIOS and clean your RAM sticks contact with eraser (yes that's what they use) if it still not working, try clear cmos

I tired a cmos clear and defaults in bios. I'll try to clear RAM, used air to dust them off already but will try with an eraser.
