Windows 10: Message On P.O.S.T. Screen

Hi,
On the computer I'm typing this on, I'm running: Microsoft Windows 10 Pro Version 10.0.15063 Build 15063 HP Compaq 6000 Pro SFF PC System Type x64-based PC During P.O.S.T., I'm seeing some information..but it's displayed so quickly I don't have time to read what it says. My computer seems to be functioning properly, but I would still like to see why that information is being displayed. Hopefully..someone will know why.
Thanks,
David

P.O.S.T. log at startup

I have been trying to figure this out since I got my new Dell Computer with Windows 10 on it almost a year ago. In previous versions of Windows, I was able to set the BIOS of that computer to show me the Power On Self Test (POST) results prior to starting
Windows. I have not been able to find a setting to do that. I contacted Dell today to find out why, and I was told that this ability was removed with Windows 10. I would like to know why, and I would like to request that you put that feature back in. I
would like to see these results at startup so I can be sure all my hardware is working properly and that I can see all devices prior to the start of Windows 10.

 

fix the stuck on automatic repair

Hi what's were you doing prior to the issue?

Did windows automatically revert into recovery environment after attempts at power on?

Have you a recovery media to boot from and try startup repair?

Have you tried manually to enter recovery environment during P.O.S.T ?

 

Do you have a cell phone or camera with video recording capability? Take a video of the computer booting and then examine the video frame by frame and you can see what info is displayed. It's probably just displaying which drives the UEFI/BIOS is detecting and which SATA ports they are connected to.

 

Hi NavyLCDR​,
The last thing I tried seems to have corrected​ the issue I was having. I went back into the BIOS and changed a setting from 'quick boot' to 'clear memory', so far I haven't seen what I was seeing. Thanks for your reply.
