Windows 10 - stuck on orange screen with white circling dots

This PC is not part of a domain, and I never get to a login screen; only the orange screen above.



Your linked instructions for Safe Mode are not useful in my situation, as they assume I can boot
normally into the system and then set an option to boot to safe mode. There is a way to boot to safe mode without the ability to boot normally but it is well hidden and complex - I will detail it below for future readers of this thread.



Your suggestion regarding Clean Boot is also not applicable. The instructions show how to disable services and startup items for third party applications. However, as I stated in my original post, I Reset Windows 10 so there are no third party
services or startup items. Never the less, I went through the steps and the results are the same - orange screen with white circling dots.



Finally, your suggestion regarding creating a new user account is again not applicable. I have multiple accounts on this PC. As I never am presented with a login screen, I cannot utilize any of them.

I await your next repair step…



For readers who are unable to boot normally and wish to boot to safe mode (only try this if you are technically advanced):

• Boot to a Windows 10 installation disk
• Go to Troubleshoot – Advanced Options – DOS Prompt (one might wonder why “Boot to Safe Mode” is not available in Advanced Options!)
• Follow the instructions here: Boot into Safe Mode on Windows 10

 

Asus P5Q mobo boot problem

Boot priority is set. Could you elaborate on the cables? I guess my next step of troubleshooting will be to inspect the cables. But, I am used to yellow/orange cables but it's been a while since I had to look at the burner. Not familiar with 'white cables' or 'other ones.'

The SATA connections that are on the MB are colored One will be white one orange the rest are Red . Make sure that they are in the ones that are colored red . The white and orange are for high speed and may not work for what you have . the red ones should be used first .
