Windows 10: After a brief power outage overnight, I'm unable to boot up my Windows 10 Desktop Computer

11/2/23 - Overnight, there was a brief power outage in our area. My "home" desktop will not boot up beyond the screen that has "PRESS ESC KEY FOR STARTUP MENU." On the top of the screen us the listing of Processor Type 1 Processor SpeedL1, L2, L3, Cacheetc. I've tried shutting down, remove from power and holding power button for 30 Seconds to no avail. Each time it reboots to this screen, I've tried to use the ESC key to access the Startup Menu, also to no avail. Suggestions, please!!!Thank you!

Computer won't boot after momentary power outage

I recently had a brief power outage while working on my Dell Optiplex GX520 desktop, which is fully up to date with Windows 10 and working fine (for its age!). When I attempted to start the computer after the outage, I got a low battery voltage message and the computer would not boot. The battery was indeed dead, so I replaced it. After that, the battery message did not return but the computer still will not boot up. It shows the Windows logo and the swirling dot pattern, but eventually goes to a blue screen error with an "INACCESSIBLE BOOT DEVICE" message. If I attempt to restart, I can eventually get into WinRE mode and I have run the diagnostic mode with no success. It eventually just tells me that a restart is needed and I have to start over. Following some advice I found on this website on the stopcode page, I attempted to get into safe mode (selection 5 under Advanced Options/Start-up settings/Restart). However, it will not go into safe mode. It just sits there for a short time, then returns to the blue screen with the suggestion that I try restarting the the computer. I can repeat this process, but I can never get Windows to start. I have already tried removing the battery and leaving it out for several hours (another suggestion I found online), but it made no difference. I was able to go in and reset the date and time and it remembers it, but that is as much as I am able to do. It just keeps going in a vicious circle. I would appreciate any help anyone can offer.

 

One of my computers won’t boot up from after a brief power outage?

After a brief power outage, one of my computers that was on at the time refuses to boot. It never gets past the BIOS splash screen and then shows the "please insert bootable device…" message.

After trying to boot with a Windows 10 USB and Live Ubuntu desktop, I couldn't see the C: drive using File Explorer, but I could see the D: drive.

I tried to connect the systems’s boot SSD to another PC using a SATA to USB adapter. Windows 10 did recognize it in the device manager but I still couldn't access it.

Looking at the SSD in the Device Manager I see this. What does this mean regarding the state of SSD? Is there any way I can recover the data, and what should I search for?
