  1. How can I leave this "Select account" screen everytime I boot up my Pc?


    I was trying to restore my Pc to a restore point from 30 minutes ago because this Usb connecting a bigger display wasn't working and i got to this "Select account" screen. I selected the only option and every password I put into the password box is all invalid. I even used BIOS to reset my Administrator password and all those set up password options in Bios and it's still wrong, and I tried to put in every password I made before and nothing was working so I clicked to reset my password so it restarted my pc. Then my computer goes to a sad face blue screen and then restarts back to the select

    confused about selecting boot device


    This is good information but I am confused about step 2 below. Wouldn't I need to select whatever device, USB or DVD, the install media is on at this point and not how I want the final install to boot?
    Thanks,and sorry for dragging up an old post but it had most of the info I was looking for.

    It is up to you whether you want to install Windows using MBR or GPT and you need to set the option in the BIOS for MBR or GPT style installation.

    Having said that. Here's the steps:
    1. Disconnect all HD/SSD except the one you will be installing Windows
    2. From the boot menu, Select #1 for GPT or select #2 for MBR to boot up the Windows Installation
      Attachment 29081
      NOTE: The screen is an example and might look different from yours
    3. Once the Windows Installation started. On the first screen, Press and hold SHIFT Key + F10, a command Windows will popup then type:
      - diskpart
      - select disk 0
      - Clean
      - Exit
      - Exit
    4. Click Next to continue.
    5. Select Custom
    6. Select the first unallocated partition and click next. Windows will create all needed partitions to install Windows 10
    7. Follow all the rest of the instruction to complete.

    MBR installation:
    1. 500MB System Reserved partition
    2. C: Drive
    GPT installation:
    1. 450MB recovery partition
    2. 100MB EFI System Partition
    3. 16MB MSR partition
    4. C drive.

  3. Rectangular box remains on screen after leaving the initial selection

    Hi Darell,

    To assist you better, please answer the following questions:


    • Did you made any changes to the Computer prior to the issue?

    • What is the make and model of the Computer?

    • Which Windows 10 build is installed on the system?

    • Please provide us with a screen shot of the issue. To take a screen shot, follow the below steps:
      • Type Snipping Tool in the search box on the taskbar, then select
        Snipping Tool.
      • To take a screenshot with Snipping Tool, select New, then select the part of the screen that you want to capture. Choose from free-form, rectangular, window or full-screen snips by selecting the arrow on the
        New button.
      • After you create the snip, you can save it in the Computer.




    I suggest you to check for any pending updates on the system and install the updates if any. You may follow the below steps to check and install the updates.


    • Go to Start and then
      Settings.

    • Click on Update and Recovery.

    If the issue still persist, you may update the

    and check if the issue still persist. To update the display driver, please follow the below steps:


    • Select the Start button, type
      Device Manager,
      then select it from the list of results.

    • Expand one of the categories to find the Display Adapters Driver, then right-click (or tap and hold) it, and select
      Update Driver Software.

    • Select Search automatically for updated driver software.

    • If Windows doesn’t find a new driver, you can try looking for one on the device manufacturer’s website and follow their instructions.
    Note: If that does not help, uninstall/reinstall the display driver by following the above steps. To uninstall the display adapter driver, right click on the driver and uninstall it.
