Spectre x360 13-ae0xx , BIOS Boot Issue 3FO

[TennysonW]

Stuck at boot screen with 3fo error

Boot device not found

Please install an operating system on your hard disk

I've already read through similar articles and questions trying solutions that haven't worked

The HP support assistant driver check results with everything updated

booting the laptop in legacy mode enabled hasn't changed anything

running any of the 2 hard drive diagnostic checks I get a message saying a hard drive is not installed however prior to this issue this time and (before/after) past occurrences of this 3FO issue my hard drive has worked all as intended

In the past, I solved this issue just by installing the new BIOS driver

this time I've had the April F.36 BIOS driver installed already and the driver download page hasn't shown any new drivers

So now I am stuck

Is a new BIOS going to be released sometime or are there any other ones I can install

Issue was solved by Whatsapp support

SSD had to be removed and reinstalled due to an unknown reason (slight connectivity issue?)
