  2. BSOD and "preparing automatic repair" loop

    Hello,

    After upgrading to windows 11, my laptop Acer Nitro 5 (AN515-52) , started freezing randomly. This was non existent in win 10.

    Now its booting to a BSOD page witht the stop code "ntfs file system"

    On next restart it boots to " preparing automatic repair" page which keeps running for a long time with no change/progress

    (This page does not show any restart/advanced option)

    I am not able to enter bios on boot. Tried pressing f2/f8/f12.

    So the laptop is currently booting in a loop between the BSOD page and then preparing automatic repair page.

    Any help/suggestions on how to fix this would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you

    Windows 10 random automatic repair after changing boot priority.

    Hello. So i have an Windows 10 Pro. Sometimes when i am changing in bios boot order from USB to HDD ( SDD ) windows starts booting with AUTOMATIC REPAIR and then restarting. Is this something with BIOS \ Windows 10 bug related? Tested on pc and on laptop , and sometimes it doing the same.


    Situation on PC first,listen:

    Few days ago after i change boot in UEFI BIOS from USB to SSD.
    Then Windows 10 showed at 1 boot Automatic Repair.
    When starting Windows 10 boot loader starts by "preparing automatic repair" and diagnosing pc.
    Interesting is that if I restart Windows (after procedure mentioned earlier) it will boot normally. This startup problem was occured only when starting system again after shutdown or restarted pc from windows.So i was needed 2 boots to boot properly to windows.
    But on pc, format was needed to remove completely issue and after format is fine.

    Pc :
    2x8gb Kingston Hyperx 1600mhz DDR3
    SSD samsung Evo 250 gb
    4790k stock
    Asus Sabertooth Z97 Mark 2 with UEFI BIOS


    Now laptop with old standard bios:
    On laptop i made the same operation, change boot from USB to HDD and on first boot Windows 10 shows Automatic Repair. But it happened once and i cant reproduce. No format was needed.

    laptop is very old with 2gb ram

    Why on pc format was needed when on laptop not?



    Thanks for suggestions.
