  1. Windows Freezing After Post on Circle Icon


    I recently transported my computer back to school. When I plugged everything back in I got past the motherboard screen to a black screen and infinite circle loop. I tried system restore, repair, and reset. All three failed to boot the computer. I then tried each ram stick, taking out GPU and unplugging all USBs. I ended up deciding to do a fresh install of windows. After installation, after a few seconds, the circles under the windows logo freeze right after my motherboard post screen. I have tried testing the ram and GPU as well as a system reset. When I attempt to reset windows completely through the windows troubleshooter, it says windows was unable to reset, no changes were made. I also do not have access to the command prompt since I reinstalled windows and was never able to set up user profiles. It asks for a password for defaultaccount0. Could this be my SSD? Thank you for any help, this has been a major headache and any help is massively appreciated.

  2. Windows freezes on the revolving circle upon reboot

    Hi Peter,

    Thank you for posting in Community.

    We understand your concern and we will provide the assistance required to help you resolve the issue.

    Before we proceed, I would like you to provide the information stated below:

    • What happens if you do not restart when the blue circle freezes?
    • Does the freeze happen only during reboot?

    For now, I suggest that you place your computer in Safe Mode and reboot your computer and check if you still experience the freeze. To log into Safe Mode refer to the article provided in the link below

    Start your PC in safe mode in Windows 10

    If you get the same symptoms in this mode as well, then I suggest that you check if you hard drive has any errors. To do so follow the steps below

    1. Open This PC and then navigate to c: drive.

    2. Right click on the drive and select Properties.

    3. Then click on the Tools tab and under Error Checking
    click on Check.

    Hope this helps.
