    How do I get my PC out of a boot loop?


    I recently built my pc. Everything was all good at first, installed windows 11 but one morning I turned the on on and it was stuck on a ‘preparing automatic repair loop’. Friends suggested wiping the SSD via the bios to remove Windows 11 and try to reinstall it. Whenever I try to boot up the Windows sign appears but then the pc turns off and this occurs over and over again. Please help.PC spec: AMD Ryzen 7 5800X 3.8 GHz 8-Core Processorbe quiet!

    Boot loop

    Hi Terri,

    This issue occurs when there are broken components on the boot configuration data of your system. To troubleshoot your boot loop issue, we suggest that you boot in
    safe mode through the Windows
    Recovery
    Environment option. To do this, follow these steps:

    • Turn on your computer. When the Windows logo appears, unplug and replug the device. Perform these steps three times.
    • On the fourth instance, turn on your device without unplugging it. The Windows Recovery Environment window will appear.
    • On the Choose an option screen, click Troubleshoot.
    • Click Advance options.
    • Click Startup Settings.
    • Click Restart.
    • Once your computer restarts, you will see a list of options. Press the F4 key to start your computer in
      safe mode.

    Once done, we suggest that you perform a system restore after booting in safe mode. System Restore will be able to revert your PC or laptop to their previous state, which can be used to repair and recover system malfunctions or issues. Restoring won’t affect
    your personal files, but it will remove apps, drivers, and updates installed after the restore point was made. To do this, follow the steps below:

    1. Right-click the Start button, and then select
    Control Panel.

    2. Search Control Panel for
    Recovery.

    3. Select Recovery > Open
    System Restore > Next.

    4. Choose the restore point related to the problematic
    app, driver, or update, and then select
    Next > Finish.

    Feel free to post back if you need further assistance.

  3. PC Boot Loop - Continuous BSOD Errors

    Hi Steve,

    Boot loops and blue screen errors are usually occurring to a Windows computer due to some corruption within the drivers or with the system files. For further troubleshooting, we suggest booting your computer into
    safe mode before creating a test user profile. Using the test user profile, check if you'll be having the same
    issue with starting up your device.

    To create a test user profile, follow these steps:

    • Using Cortana search, type Settings and then hit the Enter key.
    • In the Settings window, select Accounts.
    • Select Family & other people.
    • Choose Add someone else to this PC.
    • Click I don't have this person's sign-in information.
    • Click Add a user without a Microsoft account.
    • Name the user as TEST and then provide a password.

    If the same issue persists within the test user profile, you can use this
    link
    as a guide on how to troubleshoot blue screen errors.

    Let us know if further assistance is needed.
