Windows 10: Windows 10 freezes on boot after update

I had just updated Windows 10 the other day. It was working fine the next day, which also happened to be the day I upgraded my processor, ram, and mobo. The computer is fine so I don’t think it’s a problem with the upgrades and I’m able to enter the BIOS just fine, but I thought I’d mention it here anyways.

So after installing the parts, I went to turn on my computer and after getting through the mobo manufacturer logo, I got to the windows logo. The dots spun for a couple seconds and then froze, and nothing would happen unless I shut off my computer. Shutting it off and going through the same process lead to the windows logo screen again, but this time with the message “loading automatic repair” or something like that. However, this would freeze after a couple seconds too.

I then tried mounting a windows disc image to a usb thumb drive I had laying around from my old MacBook Air (the only other computer I have available to me) and booting windows from that, but after passing the manufacturer logo I get a blank screen with a flashing white line at the top left.

If anyone could help me figure out what to do, it would be much appreciated.

Windows boots to the desktop then freezes

Yeah...I went to google and got the F8...lol*Stick Out Tongue ....thxxx

It boots up in safe mode and seems to work fine. Now I just need to figure out what's causing windows to freeze up befor it fully loads in normal start up operation.

Any suggestions where I might start ?

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
