So the BM5 is failing during boot, and not coming up at at all... and recovery mode boot (from windows boot menu) also doesn't work?

If both of the above are true, then I don't know how to help you 🙁

You need B&O Service tool for Beomaster 5. To fix your HDD in BM5.

Now a have a contact that can boot my BM 5 and I got the right disk Crucial MX100, next question is Should I update the firmware on the SSD disk or laeve it as it is?
