Hi Everyone,
I have encountered an issue with windows where there was a store error that then blue screens the computer for the first time.
I then restarted my computer but it gave a critical path error for no reason.
After all of this, i now cannot access windows at all and then when i try to reinstall windows on my PC, it will not recognize the previous hard drive i used.
I cannot then install it on the other drive as there was some other issue with the formatting which i can't then change.

my hard drive is a Samsung MZVPV256HDGL-00000 - SM951 256GB M.2 PCI-e 3.0 x 4 NVMe Solid State Drive

Any help would be greatly appreciated as i would not like to have to get a brand new hard drive and everything was running smoothly right before that
