    Bricked Laptop


    Hello,

    Been trying all kinds of things to get this laptop stable again.

    Originally came with Win8; upgraded to Win10. Unit bricked on me during an update. I've run command line Svc/scannow; chkdsk; both came back negative. Did last two restore points - latest, then second latest, both times screen fails to load after sign on screen.

    Decided to come up in Safe mode, transfer entire C: drive files to external drive.

    This is where I'm at...Full stop. I guess I cannot attach an image to this post; screen shows 0 bytes transfer on a file called AppvlsvStream64; about a third of the way into this file transfer attempt.

    Thoughts? I appreciate your time and considerations

    :)

    Another bricked laptop

    Windows 10 Install finally gave up trying to boot and restored the previous OS. It returned the following error message:

    0xC1900202 - 0x20017

    The installation failed in the SAFE_OS phase with an error during BOOT operation

    Does that tell you anything you're able to help me with? I was trying Windows 10 on my old laptop to gauge my experience with it prior to upgrading the rest of the computers I own (there are a few). I don't see how I or anybody can trust Windows 10 if it
    fails on such common hardware.
