Windows 10: Upgrade from Window7 to Windows 10 has wrecked my computer

Hi,

im hoping someone call help. I went to upgrade my pic today.created a restore point before I ran the media creation file i created for window 10 version1909.

The upgrade was 95% complete when the computer suddenly restarted and went into repair mode and just froze.

No matter what i try it keeps going into a frozen repair mode screen.

i put in a Windows boot up disk and tried to repair and restore. It informs me there is no restore points but there should be at least 4.

when I open command prompt I can see the hard drive now contains a c drive, d drive and e drive with files spread all over the 3.

The upgrade has made a complete mess of the hard disk, I have done a good few upgrades in the past while but this is the 4th pic Windows 10 has destroyed.

I'd appreciate any help, I don't want to rebuild all 4 pc's.


Kind Regards,

Dave

:)

 

Windows 10 upgrade problem, no input accepted

I really hate having to come here and ask for help, but I really am stumped. It hurts my geek pride. I have a PC with fairly modern hardware in it. It has a p8p67 pro in it. I have tried upgrading windows 10 on it twice now. Both times I have had the same result.

After windows finishes upgrading it goes to the log in/set up screen. I can't do anything. No keyboard or mouse input is accepted.

I will list some, or hopefully all, of the troubleshooting steps I have tried:

• Move keyboard and mouse to different USB ports.
• Try different keyboard or mouse.
• Restart computer, repeatedly.
• Google for related issues.
• Update Bios, because why not.
• Create boot media and revert to windows 7.

The windows 10 system restore boot media works fine with keyboard and mouse. All USB ports work in windows 7. I don't know what is wrong. I suspect that windows 10 is lacking a driver of some sort, but since the computer accepts no input I have no way of checking for which driver let alone installing it.

Please help me figure this out. If I have to revert back to windows 7 again, I am not going to get it upgraded to windows 10. Thank you in advanced.

i've seen this when the stock USB drivers went kaput. Only ever seen it once - i used a PCI USB 2.0 card and connected the mouse and keyboard to that, and manually updated the USB 2/USB 3 drivers.

 

Has windows 10 wrecked anyone elses computer?

Are you saying that you bought a new computer with Windows 10 pre-installed, and an update 'wrecked' your computer? If that's the case you need to ask yourself a question I often ask myself: what am I doing wrong?

Updates cause problems for these reasons:

• The hardware isn't compatible with Windows 10 - which is not your problem if you bought a computer with Windows 10 pre-installed.
• An incorrectly configured copy of Windows was upgraded - again, not your problem if your PC came with Windows 10 pre-installed.
• Unwise configuration changes were made to the computer. That will definitely cause trouble for an update, because updates expect to find a supported configuration.

You can have a brand new computer and cause all kinds of problems for yourself with just a few clicks. (I know, because I've done it myself.)
