    have been getting Blue screens every hour to a couple of hours


    Ive been getting blue screens every hour to a few hours seem to have started after i updated windows i did a fresh install that did nothing. i dont have anything over clocked, all my drivers all updated to their current i would be watching a video and bam blue screen hasent happen while gaming but i dont know if i just got lucky. last time it was doing this it was stick of ram which has been replaced since then, i do know the current set of amd graphics drivers are bugged to heck at the moment so i dont know if that could be it everything was working fine aside for the amd issue (black screen, widely known issue right now) im just getting so frusted at this because everything was fine for the longest time any help with this would be greatly appreciated

    windows version 1909

    Stuck on blue screen with rotating white dots for hours

    I have an Alienware Alpha and a couple of days ago, I started having this problem that whenever the PC was restarted or turned off, upon turning back on and after the computer booted Windows back up, I would be stuck at this blue screen with rotating white
    dots in the center. The only way out of it was pressing ctrl+alt+del and that brought me to the login screen but there was no field for the password or anything, just the icons for internet, accessibility and power in the bottom right hand corner.

    I scanned other articles online and the consensus was that it was a problem with a cumulative update released by Windows and that the way to fix it was to let it sit for a few hours until it lets you log in, and then disable fast boot.

    But it still doesn't work. It still makes me sit at the blue screen with the rotating dots for at LEAST 2 hours before it lets me log in.

    I don't know how to fix this and it is super frustrating because I haven't been able to use my PC for a few days now and I can't seem to find a solution to this problem. Any suggestions?

    Blue screen with spinner (several hours) while rebooting after changing full control for Administrators to C: drive

    To answer your questions:

    • What is the make and model of the computer?
      • Lenovo W520
    • Do you get any error messages on the screen?
      • No errors on the screen
    • Which application are you trying to launch?
      • I am only having difficulty upon bootup
    More specifically. When I power up my Laptop I get initially black screen with windows logo in the middle and small spinning wheel below that for few minutes. After which, I get an all blue screen with spinning wheel in the middle and no messages. That will
    last for hours (~8hours) Then I will finally get login prompt and capable to login.

    I did check for updates and the computer completed those updates however there has been no change.

    I will try later to install the other drivers you suggest once my computer has finished booting..

    Thanks for your suggestions

    have been getting Blue screens every hour to a couple of hours

    2 hours to startup, blue screen loading.

    It's more of a blue screen with the circle loading screen, it's on it for over 4 hours now! And then it will precede to the log on page.

    Im thinking about downgrading to Windows 7 again because I don't have the time to wait 5+ hours after every shutdown and I'm running out of things to try
