    Startup BSOD Loop on my gaming PC


    Hello.
    Before I start, I cannot verify exactly what win10 version my problem PC has, but I do know I last updated it around mid-March of this year, and I've since turned off automatic updates

    The Problem
    Today, after a 2-HR gaming session, my PC crashed into a BSOD. I made the terrible mistake of hitting the power switch while it was trying to reboot. Once I rebooted, my PC is now stuck in startup, unable to finish Automatic Repair, receiving BSOD screens and restarting repeatedly.
    Automatic Repair never finishes and I cannot get to the Troubleshoot section.
    I've basically gotten all the text stop codes from this page.

    My PC has no disc drive, so I tried to use a USB drive to boot up Win10 installation media, but whenever I do, I'm also met with the same stop codes as when I would boot up without it. I've tried two USB sticks and got the same results.
    It's only happened twice, but after numerous startups (around the first hour this problem started happening), my PC would boot up normally and I'd be able to log on. However, the task bar won't work and I'd get another BSOD after about 5-10 seconds. I haven't been able to replicate this ever since.

    I don't really know what else to do, and so I saw this forum while searching for solutions. I feel like I have a unique problem, or I must be doing a wrong step somewhere.
    As much as I'm going to hate it, I'm willing to part with whatever files I have, and also willing to switch out any faulty hardware if this is a hardware issue.

    Specs
    -Model: CYBERPOWERPC (pre-built)
    -Mobo: MSI 360M Bazooka
    -RAM: Corsair Vengeance LPX 8GB x4 DDR4
    -CPU: Intel i7 9700
    -GPU: EVGA Nvidia RTX 2070 XC 8GB GDDR6

    Please let me know if more information is needed. As of now I'm posting this from my laptop.

    :)

    BSOD Loop restart.


    I've been experiencing startup issues with my PC since last night. I go to startup and startup freezes. It seems that something is either stuck or freezing up on loading. Since it doesn't fully boot up, I have been hitting the reset button or holding the power button. It appears that this has made the problem worse. I went to startup this morning and am getting the same thing. Did the same steps of hitting reset and or holding the power button to shutdown. After this I am getting BSOD that keeps restarting and BSOD in a loop. The next boot loaded with repair options. I attempted to do startup repair and have been unsuccessful. How to get out of BSOD restart loop? Thanks!

    PHASE_1_INITIALIZATION_FAILED BSOD loop on startup! Help!

    Whenever I startup my pc, I get BSOD featuring phase 1 initialization failed. And it loops.

    It happened from when I was installing Windows from doing a PC reset. The power went out for a short time, when it was installing Windows.

    What can I do?
