Windows 10: Laptop shuts down while updating BIOS

I’m not really a tech savy guy, so I’ll do my best to explain. So my laptop was having a problem with it shutting down randomly here and there. I might have messed up because I was trying to do a factory reset, then it suddenly shut off again, which led to the bios update thing, which I did. I know it’s not recommended to interrupt the bios update, but I didn’t know it would break your system, which it did on this laptop and now my laptop is not working anymore. The keyboard and power button are lit up but the screen is completely black. I’m a college student, so I don’t have a lot of money to
