Here are a few things to try. It is possible that you are starting in
some sort of USB mode, and then the bootloader is trying to switch mid-boot

Some ideas:
1) Look through the BIOS for usb compatibility boot modes and toggle them. It's 
not uncommon
for new BIOSes to have different options to switch between to support legacy 
boot, uefi boot,
usb hard drives, usb flash drives, etc. It's possible that previous CMOS 
settings were lost when
your laptop got repaired?

2) Is your usb flash drive USB 2.0 or USB 3.0 or something different? There may 
be quirks in the
USB hardware that change the behavior. You could try using 2.0 if you are using 
a usb 3.0 flash drive,
for example. If you don't have another flash drive, but do have a usb 2.0 hub, 
you could try forcing
the usb to use 2.0 by using a 2.0 hub.

3) Are you able to connect to a physical network switch? If so, you might have 
some luck with an ipxe-based
network install via a usb image downloaded from https://netboot.xyz, for 
example.

Hope these address your issue, or at least don't cost you too much time. Good 
luck!
