Hello, an update on my situation, just for the guys with bricked systems: try elementary os
somehow I've managed to install Elementary OS via USB, I do not know how that worked - I've tried with different distros - but the system recognized the ELementary OS USB pen drive ' but only that time, I have tried several times again with the same USB drive nut nothing worked.
