Sorry about your situation.

Was the BIOS update automatic through Windows Update, or you did it through a flash drive?

The BIOS may be corrupted and need to be flashed again through USB before a new operating system can be reinstalled.

If you don't want to lose your data, you can open your laptop, remove the hard drive and connect it to an external enclosure, then connect it to another laptop, and backup all your important files.

If you're in Lagos and need help with this, I can do this for you for a small fee to cover my transport.
Was able to do it myself, used a flash drive to reinstall the windows

Let me try to understand you.

Your webcam is not turning on again, and the Wifi is not showing any wireless networks?

Some of your drivers may be corrupt and need to be reinstalled through Device Manager.

Where is your location?
Yes, exactly.

Right now I can't even access my system. When turn on, asks for system recovery identity code. I'm in trouble. Please help

Lagos.

Use another PC to sign in the Microsoft account you are using on your laptop to get the BitLocker key. You will find it under the security option.

For that; you need to escalate the issue and find a technician that will troubleshoot and resolve the issues.

You may need to grant permission for your laptop to access your webcam under privacy. Then, for the WiFi; Go to device manager and check if the driver is appearing there. Also go to network adapters option to check if the adapter is disabled. If after checking these options it persist, open the laptop and examine if the wires that connect the adapter hardware is properly connected and in place 1, 2 or black, white. Then replace with another network adapter.

It can be a coincidence, the keyboard was already bad before.
Now, a faulty keyboard can make your mouse not to work.
The best thing to do is replace the keyboard.

What's BIOS?
Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by fixitng: 8:45pm On Jan 01
basitayoola7:

Basic Input Output System

A corrupt BIOS will make your laptop not to turn ON and cause the caps lock to be blinking light

A faulty memory (RAM) can also do the same

A bad motherboard as well

You need an Engr that will troubleshoot it
