Windows 10: windows 10 upgrade has made my machine unbootable

There was a upgrade that is happening on my machine on Apr 3rd which has made it inaccessible. This is a lenovo desktop which is running a CTP version of windows 10. Current state:- BIOS does recognizes the hard drive and when booted a couple of times and takes it to "Troubleshooting"- Only two options are visible "Troubleshooting" and "Turn off PC"- Tried to do "startup repair", "uninstall updates both quality and feature" did not work- Tried to restore image but do not have any- Tried the bootrec commands to rebuild the MBR but no luck- Tried to boot with bootable media and tried to run comm

I really hate having to come here and ask for help, but I really am stumped. It hurts my geek pride. I have a PC with fairly modern hardware in it. It has a p8p67 pro in it. I have tried upgrading windows 10 on it twice now. Both times I have had the same result.

After windows finishes upgrading it goes to the log in/set up screen. I can't do anything. No keyboard or mouse input is accepted.

I will list some, or hopefully all, of the troubleshooting steps I have tried:

• Move keyboard and mouse to different USB ports.
• Try different keyboard or mouse.
• Restart computer, repeatedly.
• Google for related issues.
• Update Bios, because why not.
• Create boot media and revert to windows 7.

The windows 10 system restore boot media works fine with keyboard and mouse. All USB ports work in windows 7. I don't know what is wrong. I suspect that windows 10 is lacking a driver of some sort, but since the computer accepts no input I have no way of checking for which driver let alone installing it.

Please help me figure this out. If I have to revert back to windows 7 again, I am not going to get it upgraded to windows 10. Thank you in advanced.

i've seen this when the stock USB drivers went kaput. Only ever seen it once - i used a PCI USB 2.0 card and connected the mouse and keyboard to that, and manually updated the USB 2/USB 3 drivers.
