Windows 10: Stuck at Spinning Dots

I have a Dell Precision 7910 on windows 10 1803. I updated a couple weeks ago through windows update.

I have booted the machine several times since updating. A few days ago I update the NVIDIA driver. I have dual K620 cards. Booted a couple of times sine that update.

Today I went to reboot. On boot, it was stuck on spinning dots. I only waited around 20 minutes before I powered off. Booted again, same thing.

I powered off and pressed F8 trying to get to Safe Mode. However, it now stated starting Automatic Repair.

It is now with spinning dots stating Diagnosing your PC.

I figured I would post here before doing anything else.

How long should I let it run on Diagnosing your PC? Any other ideas?

thanks,

Mike

Windows 10 stuck in loading screen with spinning dots

Hi,

Windows 10 is stuck in loading screen. Here are the things that happened before it became like that:

• I noticed that my Dell laptop is lagging so much even after restart so I checked the Task Manager and noticed that the Disk is at 100%.
  
• Found out that Avast premiere is causing the Disk to be at 100% so I End Task it
• Triggered CHKDSK upon startup in order to check if Disk is fine.
• Upon startup Check Disk ran but it is stuck at 12% even after almost 2 hours of waiting. So need to hard reboot. This persisted around 3 times
• Upon reboot Dell Diagnostics automatically kicked in since it detected that the system was not shut down properly. Result is that no problems found.
• After Dell Diagnostics, the system rebooted and now is stuck to the loading screen with the spinning dots.

Solutions that I tried:

• Used Media Installation Tool to do Startup repair. But result is that the Automatic startup repair cannot resolve the issue.
• Performed system restore to earlier date. The restore was successful but I am still stuck at the loading screen with spinning dots upon reboot.
• Startup Settings does not show in the Troubleshoot menu so activated the F8 to trigger safe mode. Upon selection of Safemode with network the system reboots and gets stuck in Dell logo screen.

Please advise. If possible I want to avoid losing my files.

Thanks!
