Means it can't read your drive. Confirm if the drive is detected in the BIOS. Power the PC off and unplug it for 5 minutes. See if it'll detect the drive after it discharges.

@PowerSpec_MikeW ..Still nothing , takes me right to bios screen. I didn’t hear any noises when powering up in the hard drive area but then again I don’t think I ever noticed a noise. What should I try next ?

It's an NVMe drive, it won't make any noise. Switch over to EZ Mode in the BIOS and check to see if the drive is even detected.

@PowerSpec_MikeW.. I’ve tried that also, still nothing

Going to take out the drive and put it back in.. see if that works

That's what i would try. Also try moving it to another slot. If that fails, SSD is dead. RMA or replace.

@PowerSpec_MikeW ..Well I took it out and placed it back in . Now I’m seeing it on my bios which I didn’t before but still loads into bios

@PowerSpec_MikeW well I switch the drive to the second slot and still same issue. It recognizes it but still booting in Bios .

@PowerSpec_MikeW so this what I got first picture is when I hit save and reboot I get that and second pic is where it’s at currently.. any ideas?

Try F8 on startup, see if it's in the boot list. If not, you'll need to create Windows 10/11 installation media to boot to and see what's going on with the drive.
