  1. Computer keeps restarting never gets to lock screen


    So yesterday i decided i try a different drive for my amd video card. I went to the amd site got the driver downloaded and then was promted with a meessage asking to restart the computer. I click yes and when the computer boots up again i have a blue screen asking for which trouble shooting option i should use i try all of them. So i decide to just pull a factory reset. During the windows reinstalling process i get an error message. It said something along the lines of windows installation ran into an error click ok to restart and continue installation. So i click ok the computer restarts and now it had just been turning on and off for hours and i’ve tried holding shift while the computer starts up and the menu wont come up. so i have come here as a last resort hopefully someone can fix this. Sorry about the bad typing i wrote this on my phone because my pc won’t turn on.

    :)

    Lock Screen keeps changing

    Hi,

    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

    Windows Spotlight picks the photos from Bing and displays them in the lock screen. I understand that you have set a picture and it is getting changed automatically.

    I suggest you to follow the steps to select the Picture that you want to be displayed on the lock screen. Please follow the steps mentioned below to set a Picture to lock screen:

    1. Press and hold Windows + I key on the keyboard to open settings.
    2. Click on Personalization.
    3. Click on Lock screen.
    4. Click on the drop down under Background and select
      Picture.
    5. Click on Browse and select the picture that you want to set.

    Hope it helps.

    Please reply with the status of the issue, we will be glad to help you further.
