low possibility thoughts
I mean motherboard firmware (early it named BIOS, nowadays many of them are UEFI). Check you manuafacturer website to see the version and compare with the version you see when you enter BIOS/UEFI.
In case of it has no data for you, may be before to reset UEFI, you have ability to remove partition table on ssd?
On Windows it will be close to this (I am not sure - I write it from my memory):
- Open
cmd. diskpartlist disk
note that number of disk which is target SSD is.select disk N
whereNis that numberlist disk
again to check the*char presence: do you see that*is located on the line of target ssd to remove partition table from and is absent on all other lines?- Double check: pay attention
do you see that*is located on the line of target ssd to remove partition table from and is absent on all other lines? If you select wrong disk, by the step 7 you will lose you data. clean
Partitions table should be removed, now it has no partition table and has the state like you “just bought it”: perhaps payload data is still available to recover by professionals, but the ssd drive now should not contain any user-available (easy-available) data.exitorquit.
And try to load Manjaro LiveCD again with that SSD inserted.
Also temporarily switch off all other HDDs, SSDs.
