Windows 10: Can't boot Windows 10 in Normal Startup If I choose Normal boot I can't boot and have to...

Thought I would give here a try to see if any one could help resolve this issue.But unlike others here with nearly same issue I can select Normal or Selective start-up however I have installed windows countless times now and it's always the same outcome. Ie.on clean install once booted I tick bootlog in msconfig and after checking bootlog I find the same issue every time. "dxgkrnl.sys DID NOT LOAD" which I believe is connected to the other issue I have and that is I'm stuck with Selective start-up every time and if I choose Normal Start-up it will select it no problem BUT the PC won't boot as

Can't boot Windows 10 in Normal Startup, Use original boot configuration not working

Your suggestion did not work under the version of Windows 10 I am using. Trying to upgrade to latest version of windows 10, but it fails to install due to a mismatch in a system configuration not described.

I used "Safe Mode" to scan for viruses and malware but found none. After safe mode I cannot reset the boot so that Windows will revert back to NORMAL mode. Never had this problem before. Followed several suggestions. None worked.

HELP.

what determines selective startup versus normal startup after clean boot and how to start with normal start up

This is the best forum for your issue and we have addressed it.

If you need clarifications, please refer to the information below:

1) How come the clean install does not start as normal startup?

• Performing a clean install overwrites all other content on the hard disk. Unlike a typical OS upgrade, a clean install removes that current operating system and user files during the installation process that's why it does not start as normal startup.

2) What determines whether it is normal or selective?

• Normal startup implies that you want everything you've installed that has Startup option to start or load at the startup after you login to Microsoft Windows while Normal Startup only select startup programs that you choose to start or load at the startup
  after you login to Microsoft Windows.

3) How do the settings in services impact the startup making it normal or selective?

• The definition of each boot up is based on how you want your system to perform upon startup. Windows Selective Startup. improves overall system performance, boot time, and get rid of programs you don't want running in the background.
  

4) In order to start with normal start up after clean boot what needs to be done?

• Usually, after the clean boot, you'll need to perform a System File Checker.
  System File Checker is a utility in Windows that allows users to scan for corruptions in Windows system files and restore corrupted files.

Thank you.
