Windows 10: Computer won't boot even though there is an OS installed and the drive is detected

Good morning, Since yesterday, I have trouble starting my desktop computer, which won’t let me boot my SSD where I have Windows 10 installed.The problem happened right after I cleaned the inside of the computer with a small microfiber dust cleaner, I removed all my drives to clean a fan that was behind them, put them back, and after that, the computer wouldn’t boot onto Windows anymore, showing a “Please enter a boot device” message instead. I believe the cleaning to be the cause of this issue, but I can’t possibly understand what I did wrong. I did the cleaning tons of times without a prob

Hard Drive Not Showing Up In The Boot Order

Hi,

Since I tried to install VMware on one of my PC, the HDD is not showing up in the boot order but I can see it in the SATA device list. If I try to install Ubuntu Server or Linux Mint, the both OS can see the 500 GB drive and I can install the OS on it but when the installation is done, the OS, Linux Mint or Ubuntu Server, depending what is installed, won't boot because the 500 GB HDD is not showing up as a boot device.

Why this happen? I do a Google search but all I get is not what I search for or non somes forums, they suggest to unplug the SATA cable and re-plug it on another SATA port because the SATA port can be dead. I do this but it won't fix the issue, by the way if the SATA port was dead, why I can see the 500 GB drive on the SATA device section of the BIOS? And also I got the HDD may be dead, not possible because he is detected on the Linux Mint setup or Ubuntu Server setup ansd like I saids I can install an OS on it and he is detected in the SATA devices section in the BIOS. As I found nothing reveland on Google, I need help please.

This is possible VMware has scrapped the BIOS or the Hard Drive? I don't know…

Thanks in advance for your help!
