Windows 10: Unable to Boot from HD, DVD or USB

I tried to restart my 'backup' PC , after a couple of weeks off , and got a message saying "The PC has run into a problem and we will restart it" It then says Preparing Automatic Repair before setting off into a repeat cycle, i tried to boot from a USB Recovery and a DVD with a Burned Recovery ISO on it, but it doesn't appear to even try to read them and cycles through again. I've tried the memory checks, but can't isolate where the problem is. Any suggestions, please?

Unable to boot into the install DVD


Dude (like the cat!)

I tried the DVD again but still no luck. In other PCs it boots OK

So I then made a USB boot as you suggested - following the tutorial instructions. That worked fine so now I have the full-monty on the HD.

Today, just for fun, I tried booting from the DVD again, and this time it is recognised and setup opened!

I guess Win 10 on a new PC without any OS just can't "see" the DVD?

Unable to boot into the install DVD

You might have to go into the PC's BIOS and set it so the DVD is the primary boot media. In many cases the HDD/SDD is the primary.. I know that's the way mine is and I have to reset it every time I want to boot to a DVD for instilation.

Hope that helps... and have fun.. oh and welcome to the forums.

I suggest you check if you are able to boot into Windows Recovery Environment using installation media. Follow the steps provided below and check.

• • Insert the installation 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’.

Check if you are able to boot to this window. If you are unable to boot to this window, I suggest you to contact the manufacturer and check.
