I'm not sure if this is the appropriate forum because this issue involves Windows, Ubuntu and potentially hardware.
My system configuration is as follows:
Disk A: SSD with Windows 11
Disk B: HDD with Ubuntu 18
Long story short, I reseated the RAM which led to neither OS booting. After a CMOS reset, I eventually got Ubuntu booting with SATA mode set to RST in the BIOS, which is the default configuration.
However, Windows is still not bootable. If the Windows option is selected from GRUB I get errors about 'Failure reading sector XXXX from hd0' and that fbx64.efi can't be found, and I'm returned to the boot menu.
Booting from a Windows 11 USB created with Rufus just returns a PNP_WATCHDOG error before even getting to startup repair and then continuously reboots.
The SSD does appear in the BIOS, but not as a boot option. It doesn't seem detectable from Ubuntu, no commands that list drives are showing it.
If I switch from RST to AHCI mode then I get stuck at the post screen, I can't even enter the BIOS.
At this point I'd love to remove Ubuntu altogether, and I'm not concerned with saving the data on either OS. If I can't even detect the drive from Ubuntu, and can't get Windows to even enter startup repair, how can I go about that?
