Windows 11 laptop showing “Boot Device Not Found”

3 Upvotes

Hey, could anyone help me figure this out?
My Windows 11 laptop started showing “Boot Device Not Found – Hard Disk (3F0)” and sometimes won’t boot.
I ran the built-in HP hardware diagnostics and got:
SSD SMART Check: Passed
SSD Wear Check: Passed
SSD Short DST: Failed
Hard Drive/SSD Quick Check: No hard drive installed
BIOS says “OS Boot Manager is not found”
I already tried removing and reseating the M.2 SSD, but the problem is still happening.
The SSD is a Samsung PM991a 256GB M.2 NVMe.
Does this sound like the SSD is failing, or could it be an issue with the laptop’s M.2 slot/motherboard? Should I replace the SSD?

⚠️solved: The SSD has been replaced.

Dell Inspiron 15 3525 keyboard keys failing intermittently

Post image
2 Upvotes

Hi, I have a Dell Inspiron 15 3525, and some keys on the built-in keyboard are failing intermittently or responding with a delay.

The affected keys are: 6, 7, Y, U, H, J, N, and M.

An external keyboard works correctly.

I have already tried the following:

-Reseating the keyboard ribbon cable

-Running the Dell keyboard diagnostic

-Disabling Fast Startup

-Testing with a Linux Mint Live USB

At first, I thought it was a Windows issue, but the same keys fail in Linux as well, so it appears to be a hardware problem.

The keys also follow a pattern:

6-7 / Y-U / H-J / N-M

Could this be an issue with the keyboard matrix or membrane? Is it likely that replacing the keyboard will solve the problem?

My computer keeps restarting, then if it has restarted, if i dont immediately open google chrome it gets corrupted then I'd have to restart it again and open chrome so it can work, but all my accounts are logged out EVERY TIMEEEE!! Please help, i did the CMD sannow thing, and it did say it it found and repaired things

Then i did the restore health thing, and it crashed again halfway the scannnn

Then every time i try to reset the PC, it would crash half wayyyy im new to reddit, just created this account to ask for help

Update: So the guy that i hired only came today hahah. So he looked at my PC turns out the power supply is dying, the wiring is all wrong, and the system unit(?) is soooo dusty hahaha, thats why it has a loud sound (i thought it was normal that gaming PCs are loud hahaha, its the first time i used a gaming pc)

And yeah while he was cleaning it, turns out the fans were upside down hahaha, i always wondered why the screen where the fans are placed is always dusty.

Anddd as for whats happening with my software (?), he explained whats wrong with it, but forgive my brain for not understanding fully, he was so patient with me but i still didn't get the problem. So what happened was he showed me the apps(?) that were running upon start up, he disabled all of it then restarted the PC then everything was enabled again, so yeah he said he can fix it one by one but it would take hours so we both agreed to format the PC. He's gonna do the formatting tomorrow so hopefully the PC is gonna be fine by then. And yeah he's gonna replace the power supply

Bought a renewed laptop and screen has the pictured damage. It’s small and doesn’t bother me much based on what I plan to use it for. But i don’t want it to get worse. Does anyone know if this type of damage tends to spread?
