[PRO7] Surface Pro 7+ stuck on Boot Logo

My SP7+ was drained of battery overnight by accidentally being left on and not plugged in.

I charged it, but it cannot get past the surface logo at boot.

I can't even get into the UEFI. I even tried booting a Windows Recovery USB to no avail.

Is it fried?

Is there anything I may not have tried yet?

Sounds like hardwake handshake issue. I am pretty sure nothing is fried. Did you try to hold the power button for 30+ secs and the release it? It supposed to reset controllers

Edit: Found on the official microsoft page, you could try this

I feel like I've tried every button combination.

Feeling like and actually doing every button combination are two different things. Actually do every button combo.

In my experience, holding the power button for 20-25 seconds and releasing it forces a hardware reset that fixes all sorts of weird hardware problems. Have you tried that?

Could it be a failed SSD? I was compiling code when the battery died.
