Windows installer won't actually install

Hi there,

So I'm an idiot. I just finished building my new pc:

Ryzen 5600X GTX 1080 Corsair SF600 Asus B550i ROG Strix Samsung EVO 970 500GB 16GB 3200MHz T-Force Ram

So I was in just finishing up my windows install, everything had gone smoothly. I saw the prompt that I needed an internet connection to install the motherboard drivers. Upon realising I hadn't plugged in the ethernet cable I rotated the tower and bam, power cable falls out. So I hurriedly turn off the psu switch, wait a few seconds, then plug everything back in and I'm so happy it works! However, when I come to installing windows again, every time I finish the file copy process it takes me back to the start of setup.

Does anyone know a fix?

TL;DR Power to PC gone mid windows install, can't install on that drive anymore.

I have tried booting from BIOS after the restart but it doesn't appear in the list.
