I recently dealt with a virus on my PC, so I decided to wipe my drives completely and install a fresh version of Windows from a USB stick. However, when I got to the step of selecting the drive for the installation, it indicated that neither my SSD nor HDD could be used for the installation and then unexpectedly powered off. Now, my PC is stuck in a BIOS loop, and I can't see any of my drives in the BIOS. Does anyone know how I can fix this issue?

If you're still in AHCI mode and your drives are still not detected, there's a chance that the drives themselves might not be connected properly. Double-check the physical connections of your SSD and HDD. If everything looks good, you might need to run some diagnostics to see if they're functioning properly.
It sounds like you might need to check your BIOS settings. Try switching the storage mode to AHCI and then attempt the installation again. If your drives still aren’t showing up, you might want to delete any existing partitions on the drive you want to boot from or do a secure erase from the BIOS—it could help.
