Black Screen on boot (HDD and USB boot)

I'm trying to repair Packard Bell laptop with Windows 10 which is not mine (No clue what happened before this problem occurred).

So, on boot, the Packard Bell logo and the loading spinner show and then it goes to "Preparing automatic repair" which lasts for 5-10 seconds and then the black screen (without cursor).

I installed the Windows 10 ISO on a external HDD and booted from it. Again, the logo and the spinner showed but for a shorter time and then the black screen appears.

I ensured that the external HDD is the 1st priority in BIOS and also tried to boot directly from it by pressing F12, and I can see that the external HDD works exactly like it's being booted from.

So I am assuming that the video card is having problems showing what is happening after the "Preparing automatic repair" or after booting from the ISO.

Any help?

Thanks in advance.
