Windows 10: Windows 10 boot issue

Hello,


I've been having a lot of trouble getting windows 10 to work properly on my newly assembled PC, to the point I'll admit I'm no longer entirely convinced it's solely a windows 10 problem and not some hardware issue, but I just cannot seem to isolate the issue.


Basically what happen is I switch on the PC, it POST's, the windows logo comes up, the dots swirl, and the when the splash screen should appear my monitor instead tells me it's not receiving a signal and I have to reboot. It's been persistently this since I first turned it on. I can get into repair mode and access safe mode, and sometimes the computer will even boot and function perfectly normally for a time after this, but the issue always returns if the PC is left asleep or switched off for some time, usually within an hour.


I've already done live chat with windows and they had me reset windows 10, and then reinstall windows 10 after deleting all partitions and none of it has worked. The same issue always returned and it's beyond frustrating at this point. I thought maybe the drivers on my GPU might be the cause AMD RX5700XT Sapphire Pulse but the issue occurs exactly the same whether the drivers are installed or not.


Here's the list full of components in case anyone finds it informative to the issue:


CPU AMD R5 3600XT

MOBO: Asrock B550M-ITX/ac

RAM: Corsair Vengeance 2*8GB 3600MHz

GPU: RX5700XT Sapphire Pulse

SSD: Western Digital 3D NAND SATA M.2 2280

PSU: Corsair SF600 Platinum


Other background that might be informative: I initially could not get the PC to POST at all and was forced to take it to a shop where they disassembled the PC, tested the parts and found them good, and then were able to get the PC to POST after reassembling it so I feel reasonably confident that none of the components are inherently defective.


Can anyone shed any light on this or provide fresh suggestions?



Thanks and Kind Regards

:)

 

windows 10 slow boot

I was having a slow boot issue on my Windows 7 install a little while back. It would take about 30 - 40 extra seconds to boot up for whatever reason.

I would try following these steps, while this didn't solve my issue, it did increase Read/Write to where it should be.

In the end, I had to reinstall my Windows 7 entirely to fix the booting issue. It was taking around 35 seconds to boot, and after the fresh install it takes about 7 seconds to boot.

 

Windows 10 USB boot

Hi there, am not a windows 10 expert. I have a pc in the bedroom on windows 10, I messed up the bootloader trying to fix the xp on that system.

System wont boot, trying to repair via win 10 usb installer.

Downloaded the media creation tool to install windows 10 installer on usb stick. Not compatible with a host of usb sticks I have. Tried the usb sticks that others use, but I think they use rufus; as the media creation tool by win 10 does not detect the usb stick.

So quick question, the win10 machine i am trying to repair the bootloader is a win7 upgraded to win10.
If i were to use the usb win10 installer to "repair installation" does the version of the iso downloaded via the media creation tool matter?

There is three options:
Windows 10
Windows 10 Home
Windows 10 N

Also is there a step by step instead of using rufus as I want to try an alternative method of creating a usb win 10 installer. Preferably with more compatibility.

System is a asus sabertooth 990 (r2?) with AMD phenom X 6.

Also is there any other software I can load onto the usb that can repair the bootloader easily?
That would be the ideal alternative. Thanks

 

Windows 10 issues!

I had a similar issue but it only happen on older hardware, Windows would install the stock drivers which would make it nearly impossible to access the internet. Luckily I had newest Intel and Realtek NIC drivers that ran perfectly on Win 10 x64 1607 version, installing those fixed my that problem.

This also can happen on a non-fresh install of WIn 10, when you try to boot from a different computer/motherboard, after a single failed boot, Windows will try to re-detect and re-install all of the drivers, which definitely won't be the most stable or newest.

I tried everything, flushing cache, resetting router, uninstalling the device completely from the list, removing the LAN connection entirely, none of those helped.
