Oh no no no, computer is stuck in a blue screen loop of death and not even a battery removal fixed the issue!

Oh no! Can you get it to the bios menu at least?

How would I do that? (I'm very much a computer noob)

Someone else would be a better guide for this, but usually if you hammer on F1 or F2 or F5 or F10 or something, instead of attempting to load the OS it will go to the BIOS menu. From there, you can tell it to boot from a USB or DVD drive, if you have a recovery disc.

Del or F12 are pretty common, try those too

I can try these again, but they didn't seem to pull anything up just now

You have to be lightning-fast if your OS boots from an SSD.
