    Hello everyone.
    Recently made pretty stupid mistake by wiping SSD including recovery partition.
    Now stuck with 'all boot option option tried. press f4 for recovery..' loop.
    Getting into bios not possible,tried every possible combination.
    What are my options? Is it just bringing it to Samsung the only one left?
    The exact model is NP900X3F-K01SE bought with win 8 preinstalled in 2014.
    Thanks a ton

    If you have wiped the SSD then the problem is more likely to relate to the UEFI partition than the SSD partition. Work through the various unbricking solutions listed here to see if anything fits your situation. Samsung's UEFI implementation when Windows 8 was first released was very fragile but improved after various BIOS updates. Do you recall updating the BIOS?
