If you had a spare PC, you can basically plug in the hard drive of the problematic PC into this second PC and check if you can browse through the hard drive.

 

Alternatively, if you had a spare hard drive you can install Windows on that one and see if it go through without problems.  Before you re-install though go to BIOS and load defaults after a reboot, install Windows.

Bro I get it, but I already knew it. But, then again neither do I have a spare PC nor an HDD. Anyways thanks and I forgot to mark this query as solved, actually, it was a problem with HDD also with the BIOS system. I got it fixed later at a repair shop:)

Hey,  I was installing Windows 10 in my pc through a bootable pen drive. Everything was going on fine until my power supply just stopped and my PC crashed. I tried to open, but it is in a sort of mid-stage where it takes a lot of time to open and then shows me a blue error screen reading ":( There was some problem with your PC. We will try to restart it." and then it restarts and all this repeats in a loop each and every time.

    I tried to re-install Windows using my bootable pen drive. Everything opens the installer and everything, but when it reaches the 'Select You Drive Screen' I cannot see my drive there. All I see is a drive with 0MB space used and 0MB space free and it shows an error asking for a driver. I tried using 'diskpart' commands in the emergency cmd, but they also can't recognize my hard drive. And yes, the BIOS does recognize my hard drive. I don't know what to do because my drive has pre-installed drivers, no CD or flash drive came along with it, and I also tried searching for drivers over the web, but I can't find any. I also tried to search many other forums, but I couldn't find any working solution. Please Help!
