UNSOLVED
Dell 7567 unable to boot or install windows
After receiving a BSOD which said critical process terminated, my inspiron 7567 would not boot up anymore, giving an error that there is no bootable device, and to check the cable. Upon doing a diagnostic through Bios, there was no issue found. Therefore I decided to reinstall windows via a USB using the media creation tool.
If i use the Raid mode in the SATA operation menu, the pc does not boot from the USB and gives a PNP watchdog error and restarts, going in a constant loop.
If i use the AHCI option in SATA operation menu, the pc goes through the windows setup, but on the drive (to install windows on) menu, it shows that the disc space is unalocated, and can not be installed on it. Therefore I tried cleaning the disk through diskpart, which succeeds, but converting it to GPT gives an I/O error and fails. The disk details in this mode also show that it has no volume.
Any sort of help will be greatly appreciated!

good night, I have the same problem, it's an excellent computer, everything runs but dell support doesn't answer anymore. this was a bios update that blew almost everyone and they don't want to accept what happened due to their mistake. they want you to pay to send them so they can diagnose and sentence you to sell another one. linux swipe, mac perfectly. only windows that doesn't work.
