    I installed a Samsung 960 PRO NVME on my 9550 and after two weeks of use all of the sudden after closing the lid the machine refuses to booth into anything. No bios nothing just plain black screen. Have tried the Fn + Power and I go through the color screens fine. The only way I can get to bios is after removing the nvme.

    Anyone else come across this issue or has any suggestions?

    Have you tried to reseat the nvme and made sure it is mounted properly ?
    Otherwise Return the nvme.
