Windows 10: My computer stays on the motherboard loading screen for upwards of an hour whenever I boot...

As stated above, for a couple of months now my computer takes forty minutes to an hour to move on from the motherboard loading screen. I just updated my bios which was three years behind but it yielded no effecting results. I’ve been trying to fix it and babysit it for the better part of a day but I’m out of ideas. The only idea I have left is that my computer is booting up from my D Drive instead of my C Drive but I don’t want to believe it to be true. I ran msinfo32 and it says my Boot Device is HarddiskVolume2 which is the only reason why I think that. Please help, thank you!

Windows 10 does not boot, stays in load screen

Hi Francisco,

To resolve your concern, we suggest that you follow the steps below:

• Turn off your computer.
• Turn on your computer. As soon as you see the Windows logo with the spinning dots, press and hold down the power button until your computer turns off. Do this process
  twice.
• Turn on your computer for the third time, and let it load.
• It should give you the message: Preparing Automatic Repair.
• On the next screen that would appear, click on Advanced Options.
• Select Troubleshoot.
• Go to Advanced Options.
• Click on Startup Repair.
• Wait for the repair to finish.

Let us know how it goes.

 

PC won't boot after Windows loading screen!

Hi,

An Automatic Repair or Startup Repair can help you resolve your concern. This tool is used when you cannot boot your Windows properly. To run Startup Repair, you can go through
Settings > Update & Security > Recovery > Restart now (Under
Advanced start-up). However, since you cannot enter your Desktop, we suggest you to force fail your computer. To do so, kindly follow the steps below:

• Boot your computer.
• While on the logo screen, do a force shutdown by pressing the Start button.
• Wait until you see "Preparing Automatic Repair" appears. If it doesn't appear, repeat the steps until it do so.
• After the loading screen, you will have a black screen and another loading screen will appear.

By then, it will now diagnose your computer and will do an Automatic Repair.

Let us know how it goes.

 

Windows does not boot instantly after Motherboard screen

Watch the video carefully, look at the rotating dots beneath the m/board logo at your step 1. They are the BootStatusIndicator* and are showing you that Windows has already started loading. The m/board logo is replacing the generic 'blue window' BootLogo*, Dell is another OEM that puts their own logo on the boot screen in place of the 'window'. Everything from Step 1 on is part of the normal Windows boot sequence.
