  1. Help with boot


    Hi

    I have some important files in an old windows machine (running Windows 10, but originally came with windows 7, it’s about 8 years old ). It was working fine till a few days ago however now it doesn’t boot. I want to access the files in the hard drive so I can copy them to my new computer in case this is not reparable. I wanted to try to boot in safe mode but I can’t since F8 no longer does that on windows ten. Any ideas how I can get the data / boot ?

    Any assistance is greatly appreciated

    laptop doesnt boot automatically

    This is what happened.

    1. Did a repair install and later disabled hibertnate in CMD.
    2. Enabled legacy option ROM in BIOS.
    3. After a few times startup ( i used the system in such mode for 5 days), changed boot option back to default.
    4. Vola!! It boots automatically to win10 without any keypress. Tested it with many starts to confirm the same.
    5. Re-enabled hibernate option using CMD and later selected Fast Startup.
    6. System booted normally, without the need for any keypress.

    I do not know exactly whether such steps resolved the problem or what else happened, hence cannot suggest above steps.

    Many thanks to all members who helped to troubleshoot problems.
