About 2 hours ago, I updated my computer from windows 8.1 to windows 10 home. The setup was going all fine until it said that it was done and it rebooted. My computer has since been stuck in a reboot loop, with there being no signal on my monitor. It has been suggested that I should update my BIOS, but I can't do that without my screen so what should I do?
Solution
Ok so you made a bootable USB containing a copy of the windows 10 iso yes? You now need to boot into the bios and change your boot order so that you boot off the USB stick. Follow the prompts as if your going to install windows but at the install screen click 'Repair' instead. This will give you access to tools which should allow you to fix the start up error.

Joel is it possible for you to download and burn a Windows 10 iso from this page (using a different machine of course):

If you could then you could use it to boot from and then access the Repair function:

Even if you have a Windows 8.1 disk you could try booting from that and running the repair option.

Not really... Unless your machine isn't compatible but if it's running win 8.1 then it probably is. It could just one of those things.. hopefullyDo you have any idea of what had caused this? My computer was fine before the update?
Sure as long as your motherboard will allow you to boot from USB then you'll be fine.Also, can I use a USB to boot from? Or does it have to be a disc?

Thank you for the information. I did a snip of this page:

and as you can see your model is supported:
Trying to find drivers for your actual model though seems almost impossible using their website. See if you have any better luck with inputting your serial number:
