Hey all.
I received a Surface Pro 7 that had been in the hands of someone else that replaced the drive and installed Windows 10 (should have been 11). It was having all sorts of weird issues. I was able to upgrade it to WIn11 fresh install from inside Windows 10. Oddly, it would not boot to any USB installer. Once it was updated, it went about grabbing Windows updates, rebooted and has been stuck at the Windows Logo since.
I have tried power and volume up, volume down; letting the battery expire.. I can not even get into BIOS at this point (I did earlier before the updates reboot). I am out of any ideas at this point. Seems nothing else to do with it. Any thoughts or did this thing just brick itself?
