What about flashing via sd card "did not work"? Did you format the sd card correctly, did you load the firmware file with the correct name? did it not change to the correct name after putting the sd card in?

Try reloading your DFU bootloader - went through the same issues you're seeing. Be SURE to follow the RatOS install/update instructions after you get the board recognized. https://github.com/bigtreetech/BIGTREETECH-OCTOPUS-V1.0/blob/master/Firmware/DFU%20Update%20bootloader/Octopus-DFU%20Update%20bootloader%20-%20en.pdf
