    Windows 10 not booting


    Recently I installed Windows 10 on my desktop computer from a USB that I bought from Microsoft through Amazon.
    However, it did not boot up first try, and took multiple attempts before it booted from the USB.
    When it did, I began the install and left my computer for about 30 minutes to let it install. When I came back this message
    was displayed on the screen: Reboot and Select proper Boot device or Insert Boot Media in selected Boot device and press a key. This was not a Windows notification as I have seen it before (while installing Linux Mint before I had Windows). This persisted for a while before my computer booted Windows 10. I then set it up and transferred my old files. After this I rebooted my computer as it was not connecting to the internet (I am using a Wi-Fi dongle), and then the select proper boot device message reappeared. Since then I have not been able to boot windows.
    Does anyone know how to fix this?
    Thanks.

    :)

  2. Windows 10 Unexpected shutdown on start up

    OK, so i figured it out myself

    Found the logfile in "C:\Windows\Minidump".

    You need the Windows Development Kit to open it and a bit of googling to understand it.

    Found out that a Daemon driver caused an error. Removed Daemon but this didn't solve it. (ps: Daemon itself worked normally).

    I let hibernate my computer again and found another error with sptd2.sys: SCSI Pass Through Direct layer

    More google and ended up on the duplexsecure site. Downloaded the W10 version and voila: problem fixed.

    For the Windows support team: It would be really helpfull if you could pass problems to a more skilled helpdesk who can do more than proposing the standard solutions in case those won't work.

    Cheers

  3. Windows 10 Unexpected shutdown on start up

    OK, so I also found out that this occurs when sleepmode (for me after 3 hours) changes into hibernate mode.

    Seems like the going into hibernate and/or starting up from HIbernate results in a shutdown. In safeboot it works perfectly.

    Anyone any idea how I can figure out where it goes wrong. Is there a way to log this (I couldn't find it in bootlog)

  4. Windows 10 not booting

    There's probably something wrong in the boot sequence of your BIOS settings. Just reset the BIOS setting for boot sequence. If that doesn't work do that and try installing Windows again.
