Failed BIOS update, Laptop keeps restarting.

Hello, I have an HP dv2050us laptop. I recently went to HP.com to update my drivers and software. When I got down to the Bios (WinFlash for HP Notebook System BIOS for Notebooks with Intel Processors - Microsoft Windows/Vista-Based version F.25), I downloaded it and installed it, when it got time to restart itself, my power turned off at my house and cut the power to the laptop.
My laptop turned off. After a minute when the power came back on I manually turned on my laptop. But all that happens is my laptop just keeps restarting itself. It loads up to the "Windows loading" screen, it will then flash a blue screen and restart all over again.

It's like my laptop goes in an endless loop of restarting, and it never makes it to windows. I tried the last known option in Safemode ('Windows advanced options menu') but it does not help or work. I have also tried getting into Safemode, but that doesn't work either.

I can press f10, and that gets me into the Phoenix BIOS Setup Utility. And pressing f8 gets me to 'Windows advanced options menu' also know as the "Safemode" screen
I have no idea how to fix this! Please help! Thank you.

 

Laptop random restarts

Really obnoxious problem here so any help is great help.
My laptop (msi - 1761) randomly restarts. And when i say random i really do mean random. Sometimes i will go a couple days of heavy gaming with no problem, other times im just browsing the internet and get these restarts. Now these aren't your normal restarts. When the laptop spazzez out it shuts down like i powered it off. Everything goes black, lights off, everything. Then it turns itself back on. Doesn't say anything during boot. Windows starts up just fine as if nothing happend.

Back history - i've ran a RAM check, it all comes out OK. A hardrive check and all comes out OK. I thought at one point something with windows had corrupted, so i formatted my HD and within 5 minutes of a clean copy of windows being installed it restarted.

TEMPS - i've ran a couple programs that keep track of booth cpu and gpu temps. Range between 40-80c. For example, skyrim plays around 81c. Turned the game off and let it sit for an hour or so, turned the game back on, laptop restarted at 68c. So its not a temp related problem.

The laptop has never restarted on just battery. It has only happened when the adapter is plugged in. I've had the adapter checked and it is sending its 19.5v just fine. However im thinking the brick is bad.

in my event viewer im not seeing anything crash before my laptop restarts. I do get this critical thing though
"Event 41, Kernel-Power : The system has rebooted without cleanly shutting down first. This error could be caused if the system stopped responding, crashed, or lost power unexpectedly."
I just want to see if anyone else has had this problem and if there is a fix that wont cost me $60-80 for a new adapter.

I've been back and forth with xoticpc tech guys, nice guys, very knowledgeable, but we couldn't figure it out. Thanks for taking a look. Hope to get this figured out.

 

Windows 10 keeps restarting after Security Center Reset from Services

Tried the suggestions of stopping services, then restarting. However all that resulted with Windows 10 finding something wrong and needing to restart windows again.

After several attempts not being able to log in eventually was able to achieve a standard login where I'm currently at .. however I'm afraid to do reboot windows as it may run into the restarting loop again finding something wrong of which it won't explain what exactly.

Who and why the developers add this sort of troubleshooting routines is beyond me. Windows finds a problem won't disclose what it as and keeps rebooting potentially more than a dozen times saying it found a problem and now needs to restart without any error codes and other descriptions and explanations.

It not exactly a mission critical problem.

Currently after checking these service are currently running

• Background Intelligent Transfer Service” - Automatic
• “Cryptographic” service - Automatic
• “Windows Update” service - Automatic with delayed start

Defenders Antivirus service won't start keeps producing the same 1053 error upon attempting to start.


I'm not going to perform another restart until I have more information why Windows 10 keeps finding something wrong after a restart, won't log-in and decides it will check everything and restart for me and then enter a continual restarting loop each with the same messages without any or much of an explanation for what's going on etc..
