I built my PC a few months ago, and it's been running smoothly until now. Recently, when I try to start it, it cycles through the red and yellow lights for the CPU and RAM, but then it gets stuck on a green light. After that, it retries and goes through the same cycle over and over again. I can't even access the BIOS, and I've tried resetting it as well. Could my M.2 SSD be damaged already, or is there something else I can do to fix this issue?

It’s really unlikely that your SSD is the culprit here. When you mentioned that you tried resetting it, what exactly did you do? Also, it’s always helpful to list your PC specs when asking for troubleshooting advice.

I took the battery out for about 5 minutes. Here are my specs:
- CPU: AMD 7500F
- GPU: 7800XT
- Motherboard: ASRock 850M-X
- RAM: 32GB
- Storage: 2TB
- PSU: Corsair 850
- CPU Cooler: Be Quiet (not sure of the exact name)
