Note that Method 1 will sometimes work pressing Ctrl+Alt-Del to access Power icon in corner, then press Shift + click Restart.īut without access to the OS you may need to Create Windows 10 Installation Media or Create a recovery drive If that fails follow whichever method will work here for Advanced Startup Options. Then unplug power and remove battery, press and hold Power button down for 30 seconds, plug back in power cable and try starting again. Unplug all USB devices and disconnect if possible all other hard drives. **BE AWARE that if the drive is failing and you stress it with the following repairs, it could fail with data loss, so if you have data that needs rescue I'd do that first following Rescue Files when Windows Won't Start, and if you suspect the drive is failing you may want to do the above HDD/SSD tests first. It does not cover hardware problems which might be indicated if these steps fail to run and can be tested using Memtest86+ to Test RAM for 5-6 passes, and Hard Drive Testing Tools or Tools to Check SSD Health followed by HDD Disk Check fromĪdvanced Startup Options Command Line, after checking that HD is detected in BIOS setup or UEFI firmware. These steps will attempt to repair the OS using Advanced Startup Options.
