I recently used WoeUSB to (attempt) to create a bootable windows install drive

It installed grub-pc and removed grub-efi so as per another answer on Ask Ubuntu https://askubuntu.com/a/381560/924681, I ran grub-update and grub-install. On reboot it failed to boot

Now my bios refuses to boot from it and Windows Setup insists it's 0mb free of 0mb

Testing via BIOS indicates the drive is OK. I tried using diskpart to clean the drive to no avail (windows command prompt from recovery options)

It was GPT (UEFI x64) and previously dual booted Windows 10 and Ubuntu mate 19.04. This is a Lenovo ThinkPad T430s

I do have a 32gb flash drive that I can use though to boot from (that's what windows setup is currently on)

It was a badly timed hard drive death, as it turns out

Replaced with an SSD
