Concerned that my PC might be broken

[odhuk]

Hi. I use a Victus 15L PC. A couple days ago, during a storm the wifi got knocked out. However when it was up and running again my computer refused to show any wifi networks. Not even any hotspots. so I restarted it and the problem persisted. About 4 restarts later, nothing was working, so I decided to look up a guideon what was going on. ended up going to device manager to disable and re-enable a wifi device, but when i restarted to make sure changes were applied, a majority of the options in the wifi menu (the menu that pops up when you click on the wifi icon) were gone, leaving only hotspot (which was pretty much useless at this point), and accessibility. Tried going back to device manager to re-enable the device, and it was just straight up gone. A friend of mine knew something was up, as he said that when devices are disabled they dont just get deleted like that. he then got the idea to boot the pc in safe mode. i restarted to boot it in safe mode (held shift while pressing the option to restart), got a BSOD (which never restarted itself again, so i had to do it manually), and the pc hasnt booted ever since. FYI, Power is going to it, as the light on the front turns on and so do the fans, but they sound lile they're spinning slower than usual. Whenever the pc is activated, nothing gets displayed to my monitor. before you ask, yes, power is going to the monitoras well, and the HDMI cable isnt faulty. I checked by setting my nintendo switch up to it, and it worked just fine. so, is it over, or is there still something I can do?
