Windows 10: Windows 10 not booting on HP 570-p047c.

When I turn on the computer, the screen indicates "preparing auto repair" and then goes to "diagnosing your computer". Then screen indicates "PC did not start correctly" and have two options: Restart or Advanced Options. Nothing works to fix the problem of Windows not starting.


What do you do to get the computer to start over with Windows. I got a Windows 10 program today and tried that but screen indicates: "the specified location does not contain information about your hardware".


Had an option to reboot in safe mode but that did not happen.

HP restoration incomplete on Pavilion 570-p017c

I just bought a new Windows 10 PC - an HP Pavilion 570-p017c - at Costco on February 15, 2017. I did not start to use this PC until Monday, February 19, 2017, because of disk wiping events on my old PC, the HP Pavilion 550-227c, before recycling away that
PC at Best Buy.

I was trying to initiate the HP recovery process on the Pavilion 570-p017c due to some “Office product key issues”. However, a screen that said “recovery incomplete” appears with a command prompt window that displays “the system cannot find the drive specified”
right behind it. I tried many methods, but none worked. I even made a clean install of the Windows 10 version that was preinstalled on the PC (Version 1709) in order to run it smoothly.

Is there any other way for me to “successfully” perform a clean recovery on my Pavilion 570-p017c?

 

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 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.
