At first the power went out and the computer wouldn't boot, and kept trying to repair it but couldn't. Eventually booted it in safe mode and it froze after a minute or two, requiring a hard reset. When I restarted it, it was able to normal boot but continued to freeze after a few minutes and...

This is a problem I've had for months with no solution in sight, even after trying multiples fixes. Windows 10 ran fine for about 3 months prior to this issue, but ever since this happened I haven't gotten it to run properly since. A few months ago, I ran into an issue when I installed an...

Hi. I'm trying to access Safe Mode. I'm accessing the Advanced Startup Options screen (by Shift + Restart) but the only option there is "Turn off the computer". I also tried pressing F8 during boot but that also didn't work. I remember Safe Mode showing up as an option 2 or 3 weeks ago. What...

I can't get my Wondows 10 PC to boot up because I made a big mistake. Everything was fine, no problems. I had an old pc and wanted to get some things off of the hard drive, so I put the old pc's hard drive into my current pc. It was recognized as drive H, I think. I was able to copy stuff off...

So, this morning Windows decided I wasn't having enough fun in my life, and decided to fuck with me. Yesterday, it had updated but I had not yet restarted. I hadn't scheduled it - in fact the schedule window was open so I could dictate when I wanted the thing to update. When I woke up, I saw...
