Laptop Keeps Booting Back Into BIOS After Camera Driver Update

I was trying to fix my laptop's built-in camera and followed a tutorial that instructed me to update the camera driver. After doing that, the laptop started opening straight into BIOS every time it boots. Choosing Save & Exit doesn't helpโ€”it just returns to BIOS. How can I get it to boot normally again?

Updating a camera driver normally shouldnโ€™t cause this, so first check whether the BIOS still detects your internal SSD or hard drive. Look for a Storage, Boot, or Information section. If the drive is listed, make sure Windows Boot Manager is the first boot option, then save and restart. You can also try loading the BIOS default settings before saving. If the drive isnโ€™t detected, the storage connection or drive itself may have failed, and youโ€™ll need to check the hardware or have it serviced.
