I've already had a Windows 10 with UEFI and Secure Boot activated in the bios. Then I changed booting priority in bios to boot from a live USB of Ubuntu 18.04, it loaded and I started the installation. After choosing the language and some steps it asked me for if I want to install my NVIDIA drivers and I told it to do the thing and it required a password to set on, I've set a pass and it went to the next step which was partitioning. At this stage, a power outage happened due to the lack of battery.



After this incident, I can't go to the bios by pressing the Delete button on my MSI GE60 2pc Apache laptop. Instead, it shows me a blank screen with a white non-blinking dash. The windows were good and I could get into it by taking out the USB. N as long as another method of getting into the bios is by holding the Shift and clicking on Windows restart in its start menu, I did so and now what I only see after turning the laptop on is that black screen with a white solid dash near the center of the screen.



From now on, whenever I plug the USB it doesn't load a live Ubuntu n gives me an "mmx64 not existed error". Then I figured out a way to run a live Ubuntu again. I opened the USB in another laptop and went to the USB directory>EFI>boot and I changed the grubx64.efi name to mmx64.efi and now I can only run a live Ubuntu from USB on my laptop n nothing else. I still can't get into neither the bios nor my windows10...



Can anyone please, help me to give another life to my only friend, my laptop?
