  1. Infinite Boot Loop, cannot enter repair/recovery mode


    Hi all,


    after trying to update for the 100th time, I opted for the ‘keep my files, delete everything else’ option in the update menu, and now my ASUS ROG GL503G is stuck in a boot loop: keyboard flashes, ROG logo appears for about 2 seconds, then keyboard flashes and computer turns off, then process repeats. I can enter bios, but I’m not sure if I can get to safe mode from there?


    I have tried disconnecting battery and hard shut down x3 to get into auto repair mode. Neither works. Tried removing all media, tried shutting off wifi, nothing. Need this computer to study for exams this week!!!

    :)

  2. Cannot enter safe mode


    Hi, My Asus laptop is stuck in a startup repair loop while trying to fix error 0x80070091, I've tried following things:
    Use this guide: Startup Repair Infinite Loop Recovery - Windows 7 Help Forums
    Use the option 'reset this pc' and tried to use 'system recovery' but all to no avail.
    While in this startup repair loop it also seems impossible to enter safe mode. (I've tried to enter safe mode pressing F5 from the startup settings screen). I guess using the tweaking repair program will solve this error (0x80070091) but obviously I have to enter safe mode first. Any suggestions?


    Thx!

    Infinite Repair Loop


    I have an HP 14-ac151nr laptop. It attempts to diagnose and repair but loops. Cannot access safemode.

    Have tried startup repair
    bootrec.exe with /rebuildbcd & /fixmbr & /fixboot
    chkdisk

    I found this while searching the forum. Startup Repair Infinite Loop Recovery - Windows 7 Help Forums and tried it. on step 13 it said "The file sizes presented here are approximate estimations, and may vary depending on your system. If any one of them are 0 bytes, then you should stop what you're doing now and seek an alternative method of recovering your system, because Windows cannot function with a 0-byte size registry hive."

    Of course everything was 0-byte.*Mad

    I would assume its toast and I would need to do a clean install, or maybe a repair install or something else? Not sure what is the best action at this point. Need advice.

    Windows recovery infinite loop

    My laptop is stuck in an infinite windows recovery loop. I can't boot into safe mode. I have tried chkdsk commands bootrec etc. Legacy boot results in the windows recovery loop and the uefi boot displays this message ''hardware scan complete with no issues.
    No bootable devices were found! Possible causes could be a corrupt os image or a boot device is not enabled in bios setup.'' I was using windows 10 32-bit with latest 1903 updates and it was activated with a digital license.
    Reinstalling windows also results in error after 65%.

    If I get another copy of windows 10 for my laptop will I still be able to activate it and will my digital license be valid? And my processor and other hardware is 64 bit capable can I switch to 64 bit now. And why can't I access my product key using the
    cmd from recovery environment. The command wmic path softwarelicencingservice get........ Results in an error while it used to work before.

    Please also suggest some solution for this loop that has worked before.
