first off.... here are screen shots running through the codes you requested.

Does this system have Intel Optane? I ask because you have a 28Gb disk listed (would that be a 32Gb Optane module?).
Nothing in advanced options related to BIOS...
Startup Repair- did not work
Cmd Prompt- functional
Uninstall Updates- n/a
System Restore- tried that, did not work
System Image Recovery- None available
What are the status of the important computer files:
a) files backed up to another drive or the cloud
b) backed up images saved to another drive or the cloud
c) no backed up files or images > files need to be saved
d) no backed up files or images > files do not need to be saved
Answer: C&D Mainly pictures and I'm sure other files I'd prefer not to lose. If I have to do a fresh install of Windows, I plan to do that on a fresh drive and attempt to recover data from this one that's down.

I think your computer is trying to boot from a LAN drive (post #6)
Enter BIOS and check boot priority drive.
You may also try to launch boot menu during POST and select Windows boot Manager on your drive.
The only thing I am able to do is boot with the ISO USB drive. Hot keys are not opening BIOS and No option to get to BIOS in the advanced troubleshooting on the front end of the ISO. All I've been able to do has been with the cmd prompt.
Working on getting the info and going to try and run some processes through the day while I'm doubled up on work as a co-worker is out half the day with a Dr's. appointment.
I appreciate those taking their time trying to help me out. Thank you. It may be late afternoon or early evening until I can really focus on my busted boot.
I did find some spec's on the work PC...
I'll be back later today.
