Black screen BIOS when accessing the UEFI firmware settings using a specific SSD

I'm trying to access my BIOSUEFI firmware settings to change the main boot directory to GRUB which is in my SSD; Windows is on the HDD. Howevermy SSD (Windows is on the HDD), however whenever I try to launch the BIOSUEFI firmware settings, I'm met with a black screen. After removing the SSD, the BIOS boots completely normal (with certain small flaws caused by windows). Trying to remove the HDD and boot with the SSD only also shows me a black screen when opening the BIOS. Connecting a different SSD however does work with and without the HDD, the BIOS boot normally.

  • After removing the SSD, the UEFI firmware settings boots completely normal (with certain small flaws caused by Windows)
  • Removing the HDD and booting with only the SSD shows a black screen when opening the UEFI firmware settings
    • Connecting a different SSD does work with/without the HDD, with the UEFI firmware settings booting normally

I've already tried everything, updating BIOSthe UEFI firmware, checking for HDD and SSD errors with AOMEI partition assistant and some windowsWindows default commands. So, so it must be some error from either the SSD itself or the motherboard, but I doubt isit's the motherboard assince it works with other SSDs. Thank you in advance for the help.

Black screen when accessing the UEFI firmware settings using a specific SSD

I'm trying to access my UEFI firmware settings to change the main boot directory to GRUB on my SSD (Windows is on the HDD), however whenever I try to launch the UEFI firmware settings, I'm met with a black screen.

  • After removing the SSD, the UEFI firmware settings boots completely normal (with certain small flaws caused by Windows)
  • Removing the HDD and booting with only the SSD shows a black screen when opening the UEFI firmware settings
    • Connecting a different SSD does work with/without the HDD, with the UEFI firmware settings booting normally

I've already tried updating the UEFI firmware, checking for HDD and SSD errors with AOMEI partition assistant and some Windows default commands, so it must be some error from either the SSD itself or the motherboard, but I doubt it's the motherboard since it works with other SSDs.
