Windows 10: How do I unbrick my computer from its last update?

When I try to log in, it asks for my pin. It won’t accept my usual pin for my desktop it auto enters the pin before the characterlength is long enough for the desktop pin, It won’t accept any of my pins new or old, and won’t let me use my password. When I put in the pin is says “credentials unavailable.”. It won’t let me connect to the internet, so when I click forgot pin, or reset pin those are both dead ends. I’ve tried safebooting>troubleshoot>advanced options, both uninstalling updates both feature update, and other update, couldn’t uninstall anything so no files were changed,

Screen won't start


Since my problem was not related to Windows 10, I posted the step by step process that I used at Bleeping Computer. I could find a link for the thread, but the bottom line is I succesfully unbricked a laptop.

 

Windows Updated(16299.309).KB4088776 Restart is required to complete.

Hi dalchina. Good news, I followed your suggestion and reinstalled the update and now it appears as "installed correctly" *Biggrin Maybe it was not necessary to run the Windows Update Troubleshooter or maybe if necessary. But using it I do not think it could have worsened something. The installation was very fast, unlike the first time it showed step 1 and step 2 completed.

Thanks for the suggestions and for the time to respond Best regards.


And thanks for the tip of that program, I'll have it on my list.

 

Intel E5200 Gets Updated, R0 Stepping Coming Up

Intel's Pentium Dual-Core E5200 processor is getting on course for a specifications update. The chip will feature in a new, improved Wolfdale-2M core, spec'd out as the R0 stepping, from its current M0 stepping. The new stepping is intended to add new instructions, power-management features, and bring about changes in the chip-package. A short list of known changes is as follows:

• CPUID changed from 10677 to 1067A
• Power State Indicator (PSI) support with Intel 4 series chipsets
• New instructions - XSAVE and XRSTOR
• New S-spec and MM numbers
• New halide-free chip package

Due to the changed CPUID, users may require BIOS updates to detect the CPU. According to the company, E5200 R0 should be out by April 13.
