[PLUG] Request for help, bricked my PC attempting to dual-boot

[Douglas Lentz via plug <plug@lists.phillylinux.org>]

Recently got a new desktop PC. It came with Windows 11 preinstalled.  
(Windows installation worked with no problems that I could see). There  
are one or two applications I use that unfortunately, only run on  
Windows. I attempted to set up dual booting, Ubuntu 22.04/Windows 11.

Partitioning and installation was unremarkable. First restart went OK  
- grub gave me a "Select your OS" menu.

Updated Ubuntu. Ubuntu requested a restart to finish installation.

The box now restarts to a Grub 2.06 command prompt screen. You know the one:

=========================================
GNU grub 2.06

Minimal BASH-like editing is supported...

grub>

=========================================

However, I can't enter anything because the box no longer responds to  
keyboard input. I've tried both a USB keyboard and one with the  
old-fashioned DNI type, circular keyboard connector. No good.

Is there anything else I can do, or any way to proceed from here, or  
is the only alternative to take it to a service place and have the  
drive wiped?

Thanks in advance
