Might have damaged either HDD or SSD

I'll be honest here. I was playing Battlefield 1 and raged way more than I should of and slammed my desk. My PC was on the desk next to me. It obviously froze my game as well as any browser stuff from my second monitor.

That happened around 3 or 4 weeks ago. Everything was going well. Battlefield would sometimes freeze up on occasion. And now, I keep getting disk read errors with the CTRL ALT DEL restart loop. I eventually shut down and got back on my desktop successfully. Until it started to freeze up and get really messed up. Windows asked if I should kill process and I cancelled, only to have it pop out again. I clicked okay.

I put in my Win 10 iso USB to try and repair this but it only seems to have gotten worse after I got an automatic repair loop after a few attempts. My SSD wouldn't show up on Bios after that. But my HDD shows up fine. I basically made my problem bigger unintentionally.

Now I'm trying to just work off a clean slate and trying to clean install, but I'm stuck at a blue screen on the win 10 ISO. Help! Sorry for the backstory.

Your hard-drive took an unrecoverable hit & movement. I hope your full image backups of your OS and Data partitions are current. It's to salvage what Data you can, make directory trees of your programs, and prepare to get another hard-drive.

Thanks for your input, Roland. I took it to the shop for a diagnosis and it seems my SSD stopped working, but the HDD is fine and running. It's hard to believe that. I'm considering putting my tower on the floor but I'm worried about carpet static.
