Windows 10: PC Stuck On Boot Screen After Failed Reset

Hello, I’ve recently tried to reset my Lenovo Ideapad on Windows 10. After it got stuck at 44% for 8 hours I decided to shut it down and try again. When I try to turn it on, the manufacturer’s logo and the spinning dots will show up for about 10 seconds, then the screen will go black shortly, and then it will repeat those two steps endlessly. I’m not sure what the best course of action is from here. I’m writing this from my phone, and I apologize for all the technological ineptitude presented by myself. Help is appreciated, thanks.

Unable to boot the PC, stuck in recovery mode screen​

Hi Joe,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



I understand that you are unable to boot the PC normally as it is stuck in recovery mode.

1. Were there any recent updates installed on the PC?
   
2. What is the exact make and model of the PC?
   

I would suggest you to follow the steps mentioned below and check if that helps.



Method 1:



Boot the PC into safe mode with networking and check if you are able to login. Refer the article to

Start your PC in safe mode in Windows 10, refer the section
From a black or blank screen.



Method 2:



Perform a system restore to revert the PC back to the state when everything was working fine. Refer the article

Recovery options in Windows 10, refer the section
Use installation media to restore or reset your PC.



Note:
Do not reset the PC; resetting the PC will remove all the data and installed programs from the PC.



We await your response.

How to factory reset Cisco 1700 Router

Hopefully I can help you here....its a very common thing to happen.


First, I take it you dont know the passwords for console access or telnet/ssh?

I will assume that these devices belong to you.

step 1. Plug a cisco console cable into a serial port on your pc
step 2. Plug other end into Cisco console port
step 3. Using hyperterm or putty or similar connect to the serial port
step 4. boot router, and make sure you clearly can see the output (this confirms you have good serial comms)
step 5. if this fails, adjust the comm port settings (9600, 8,1,n are the default)
step 6. now you have to do the only hard part...send the break command:

Break command list: Break Commands

Go down the list and match your OS and SW and try the sequence suggested.

If this fails several times do what I do: Install putty (free) and then to send a break so you can get into rommom just hit "ctrl-a b".
