Windows 10: Startup Repair when you can still boot.

I have been having some BSOD issues with my laptop once I changed the motherboard. I have been trying all the repair tools windows has too try and fix it in case the software got corrupted. I can currently boot onto my laptop but when I tried to run the "startup repair tool" I got the response cannot repair this computer automatically. My question is does this mean there is an issue here to fix? Or can it also give this response when nothing is wrong with startup.

Windows 10 stuck on Startup repair when booting

Hi,

As per the description I understand your concern about Windows 10 Startup repair, we will help you with this issue.
I would suggest you to run Startup repair from Advance boot option. It may ask you to insert the Installation DVD/USB while doing startup repair. You have to create an installation media for that. You may download an ISO from
the below link:

To run Startup repair from Advance boot option, follow the below steps:

• 
  Press and holdShift key
  and click onRestart in Power icon.
  
• 
  Click onTroubleshoot.
  
• 
  Click onAdvanced Options.
  
• 
  Now click onStartup Repair.
  
• 
  Follow the further instructions.
  

Hope this helps you. Keep us posted if you face any issues on windows in future. We will be glad to help you.

Thank you.

 

laptop doesnt boot automatically

This is what happened.

1. Did a repair install and later disabled hibertnate in CMD.
2. Enabled legacy option ROM in BIOS.
3. After a few times startup ( i used the system in such mode for 5 days), changed boot option back to default.
4. Vola!! It boots automatically to win10 without any keypress. Tested it with many starts to confirm the same.
5. Re-enabled hibernate option using CMD and later selected Fast Startup.
6. System booted normally, without the need for any keypress.

I do not know exactly whether such steps resolved the problem or what else happened, hence cannot suggest above steps.

Many thanks to all members who helped to troubleshoot problems.

 

Startup repair not working after "Default boot device missing" message

Hi Adam,

Corrupted boot system files is one possible cause why you're getting an error message after running the startup repair. Before we proceed, I'd like to know if you have made any changes prior to the issue.

Meanwhile, I would suggest that you boot from Windows 10 installation media in a removable storage device, flash drive, or DVD and access the Advanced option. To do this, follow the steps:

• Insert the USB or flash drive to your PC and restart.
• The Windows Setup screen will pop-up, select language and click Next.
• Choose Repair your computer.
• Select Troubleshoot.
• Click on Advanced options.
• Choose Command Prompt and enter the following commands:

bootrec /scanos

bootrec /fixMBR

bootrec /fixBoot

bootrec /rebuildBCD

• Restart PC and check if there are any changes.

Update us with the results.
