  1. Windows 10 Recovery Loop


    My fiance and I have had our computer for about 3 years now. It's never given us any problems at all. We don't download any content that we believe might be malware and we typically stay away from infectious sites, but we turned it on today and this message appeared: "Automatic Repair couldn't repair your PC". We know that the problem is not uncommon and that there are many ways to go about solving the issue, so we attempted almost all of them that this webpage offered: Fix: Windows 10 Automatic Repair Couldn’t Repair Your PC
    We tried all of the command prompt solutions but we couldn't get anywhere. We couldn't get the system to wipe clean either. We have a Logitech mouse and keyboard, someone said that the brand could cause problems so we unplugged them but it didn't resolve anything. Can anyone offer any advice?

    :)

    Windows 10 Stuck in Recovery

    If someone could help me that would be fabulous.

    Windows 10 went through an update. After the update finished loading, the system was no longer recognizing the sound drivers. I told the computer to revert to the previous version since everything was fine prior to the update. Now the machine is stuck in
    a recovery loop. It will not login to Windows and it will not allow me to get any further than the BIOS screen. It continuously loops, I'll get a flash on the monitor of the recovery screen and then it shuts down and starts the loop again.
