1. Hi there,

   It sounds like you’re dealing with a serious issue if your PC is crashing directly into BIOS and the C drive appears to be corrupted. Before considering the replacement of your SSD or reinstalling Windows, you might want to attempt the following troubleshooting steps:

   • Verify Hardware Connections: Ensure that the SSD is properly connected to your motherboard and power supply. Loose cables can sometimes cause boot issues.
   • Run Diagnostic Tools: Use manufacturer-specific SSD diagnostic tools or built-in Windows tools (if accessible) from a bootable USB to check the drive for errors.
   • Use a Live USB Environment: Create a bootable Linux USB (like Ubuntu) or Windows recovery media. Boot from it to attempt to access the SSD and backup important data, if possible.
   • Attempt Repair with Windows Recovery: If you can boot into recovery mode, try using the “Startup Repair” option or the Command Prompt to run repair commands such as chkdsk /f /r C:.
   • Consider Data Backup: If you can access the drive through an external adapter, back up any critical data before proceeding with further steps or reinstallation.

   If these steps do not resolve the issue, replacing the SSD and performing a clean Windows installation might be necessary. However,
