Windows 10: Scanning and repair loop on startup and I can't get to advanced repair options! Please help!!

After doing a routine update of Windows, my laptop (Lenovo G50-70) is stuck in a loop of scanning and repairing drive C:, a black screen, then all over again on startup. How can I get to the advanced repair screen? I've been trying Fn + F2 but I think I need to advance from the first loading screen to be able to do this. I've got a windows boot usb too if I need to use it. But I don't know how to boot windows from this without being able to enter BIOS mode? Any help would be really appreciated - thanks!

Automatic Repair Loop

Hi Charlene,

Your concern regarding the device going into an Automatic Repair Loop can be caused by change on its settings/configuration or broken system files. To effectively assist you with your concern, can confirm if you've made any changes on your device prior to
your concern?

As an initial step to get back into the normal Windows screen, we suggest that you perform a
Startup repair. The repair will attempt to fix any broken components/files which may prevent your device from booting properly. To do this, follow the steps below:

• On theAutomatic Repair screen, select Advanced options.
• Select Troubleshoot.
• Select Advanced options.
• Select Startup Repair.

We'll appreciate if you can send us an update.

 

Automatic Repair Loop

Hi,

Unsuccessful installation of an update could be a possible cause why you are experiencing the automatic repair loop. To address this concern, we suggest running the Startup Repair tool using your bootable USB. This tool can scan and repair damaged system
files. Follow these steps to run the Startup Repair tool:

• Insert the bootable USB and boot Windows 10 from it.
• In the Windows Setup page, select the language to install, Time and currency format and the keyboard or input method and click on Next.
• Click on Repair your computer and select Troubleshoot.
• Click on Advanced options and select Automatic Repair and select the operating system. You might also require changing the boot priority in BIOS in order to allow the computer to boot from CD/DVD.

Important: While scanning the hard drive if any bad sectors are found, the scanner tries to repair that sector, any data available on that might be lost.

Note: Modifying BIOS settings incorrectly can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from booting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that any problems resulting from the configuring of BIOS/CMOS settings can be solved. Modifications
of the settings are at your own risk.

Keep us updated about the result.
