I do really need to fix my computer. I was installing windows 10 on my computer then the power got cut and now I just get the following message when my computer boots up: The computer restarted unexpectedly or encountered an unexpected error. Windows installation cannot proceed. To install Windows, click ok to restart the computer, and then restart the installation.
I have tried to restart the computer alot of times but I get the same message everytime I start my computer.
So I recently got a new SSD and installed Windows 10 on it, I'm wondering how to make it so my HDD doesn't take over again and become the boot part and leave my SSD in the dust.
The first time I installed Windows 10 on my SSD and then hooked up my HDD to the system even with the boot order where I put the SSD first somehow the HDD ignored those settings and started up, so my SSD was left doing nothing.
So I reinstalled Windows 10 on my SSD with my HDD unattached for now, I was wondering what I have to do to make sure the SSD is the boot and the HDD is just a storage device.
I have been using my sweet gaming PC (Windows 10) since September when Microcenter, who assisted me in fixing a problem with my motherboard, returned my computer to me. I have never had any problems with software until yesterday when I was browsing around and suddenly my computer restarted. It said it was updating, so I thought nothing of it, then it booted back up, and I needed a password, I didn't know what it meant, so I just typed random characters, it told me a hint that I would never set as a password ...
So I have a bit of a problem where my screen flashes, I instantly thought it was display drivers so I uninstalled them only to worsen the problem, the computer restarted with a black screen which later turned into a desktop screen with no icons and a flashing screen (can't click anything or even load up the start menu with the windows key). I put it into safe mode but it does the same thing. Nothing works except task manager and i can't run task from it or it will exit out, system restore doesn't fix the issue either. Computer is a lenovo k450 i5-4440 8gb ram 1tb hdd with an evga gtx 760.
Lately my PC has been shutting down out of the blue, in about 5 seconds at that. Also, upon turning it back on it starts up real slowly. This generally happens when playing games, however if I'm on the computer that's what I'm doing so not sure if that's a good assumption. No viruses, according to AVG at least. When I look at shutdowns in event viewer it doesn't say much more than it shut down due to error.
/e I'm running windows 10 on an HP Envy with i7 Processor and 12 gb ram. Also, of 5 Hardware monitoring programs, not a single one will report any 5v or 12v readings for my motherboard. Is my power supply bad, or are none of these compatible enough to test it?
I was using my laptop last night and got off and decided to go to bed. At this point it was still working fine. When I woke up, it was installing an update and I decided to let it finish. After the update was complete, it went to a lack screen, which I thought was weird.
So I restarted and it went to the boot screen, which leads me to the problem I've been having since. It would show Lenovo and the boot screen until it would blink to black a few times before showing me the boot screen for some more time at a lower frame rate until the screen would appear black. I can still use everything and even log in and hear the skype startup sound. Everything works fine. Is there an easy fix to this or should I wait until the next Windows update?
I have lots of progress on the computer that I cannot lose. I do not know much about the inside of a Lenovo ideapad z510 so I could not take out the battery. I am desperate and have tried anything and everything online. Something has to work.
I'm having a problem with Windows 10 Pro x64. The notifications that pop up by the system tray won't disappear. They stay in the foreground until I force a restart of Explorer via task manager. It would ordinarily just be an annoyance but the notification often blocks (stays in the foreground) the right click menus of the systray icons which disrupts usage. As you know killing/restarting Explorer also stops any file copies/transfer in progress which is another PITA.
At first I thought it was an issue because it was an upgrade from W8. I did a fresh install of the latest build to a new SSD over the weekend and the issue persists. I have two W10 Pro x64 systems and it only happens on my laptop which is a Thinkpad Edge e531. Both machines run identical software. The only difference is Intel Display Driver systray icon on the laptop. I cannot completely rule out the Intel app but it's such a widely installed application you would think if that is the cause there would be a lot feedback online.
So, I wanted to reset my pc via windows 10 and everything was ok untill the resetting got stuck on 99% and I restarted my pc.
Now when i start my pc I cant press f8 and get into advanced boot options and when windows starts up It says INACCESSIBLE_BOOT_DEVICE. Your PC ran into a problem and needs to restart. and then windows keeps restarting my pc for no reason.
I do not have a windows CD. I can only get into my ASROCK Bios
This weekend I had several BSODs while playing games. 2 times the system simply crashed black screen and restarted, 1 time I received a BSOD MEMORY_MANAGEMENT error, and 2 times I received a BSOD IRQL_NOT_LESS_THAN error and a restart.
The MEMORY_MANAGEMENT and one black screen crash occurred while playing Forged Alliance Supreme Commander, then the IRQL errors and a black screen crash occurred while playing Steam version of Age of Empires II.
I clean installed Windows 10 about 2-3 weeks before the problem. During the clean install, the computer crashed once, but was otherwise rock stable.
The first time I had the current problem I got an error saying something like Boot Failed and the Bios was reset to its default values. The computer restarted and was rock stable. I immediately did a memory test using Windows 10s memory tester and all was good. I also rebooted with no problems, but when I shut the computer down all I got was a blank screen.
I removed all the devices from the motherboard and tried using each of the two memory modules in each of the four memory slots, and it posted just once, but I was unable to replicate this when I shut the computer down and tried to restart the computer.
I tried several times to remove the battery to reset the the Bios to no avail.
I sent the motherboard to Gigabyte, but they said the motherboard works just fine!!!
What should my next step be? I highly doubt that it's the CPU, and that seems to suggest the power supply.
I am using the onboard DVI to my monitor. No gaming and no overclocking. I have a i5 Intel Haswell.
From my internet reading it would appear that virtualization might be invovled and I've managed to install a virtual machine on the new computer, however, I've now hit a brick wall ..
The vhdx image file is on an external HD together with bu's of my data files (just to be on the safe side)
I just purchased a new Dell desktop which was pre-loaded with Windows 10. All I have done to this point is activate and update Windows. I want to install a Samsung 850 EVO SSD and then make the HDD a storage drive. Would it be better to migrate Windows to the SSD or perform a fresh install by using the media creation tool?
Yesterday my computer froze a number of times. It started off at about 3 minutes post boot up then got subsequently quicker with each restart. It eventually started freezing on the windows logo screen.
After about two windows logo screen freezes it automatically booted into safe mode. At this point I tried Clr CMOS, which had no apparent effect and then I disabled literally every startup program and that still had no effect.
Where I stand now:
- I have backed up all my data to an external drive.
- I have performed a "full reset" of my computer i.e. all personal data, installed apps and settings are wiped and windows reinstalls a clean version of itself.
- The set up of windows worked normally, but once it rebooted itself after set up was finished it automatically booted to safe mode.
I've exported an xml and a text document from speccy ....
I get the message this computer does not meet minimum requirements. I have gtx 970 with latest driver and I installed latest drivers from mainboard site. My motherboard is asrock z97 fatality killer. My cpu is i5 4460.
New build. From a fresh install of windows 10 i try to install the drver for my IGPU Intel HD 530. each time i do that i get a BSOD with this message:
VIDEO_TDR_FAILURE igdkmd64.sys Or sometimes it's SYSTEM_THREAD_EXEPTION_NOT_HANDELED igdkmd64.sys
I've tried drivers from motherboard manufacturer CD, website and intel and some autodetect driver software. I always get the same behavior:
The screen start blinking several time ( black screen) before showing the BSOD then reboot and repeat it self. Even the driver downloaded by windows update have the same impact.
I've managed to install it in safe mode but when i restart in normal mode i get the same behavior. I've tried 2 different monitors, VGA and HDMI , tried with UEFI on/off => same result. I've tweaked once the tdr delay to 8 second, but didn't work.

I have tried everything I can think of, including the stand-alone ZA uninstall, however the Win 10 installer is detecting *something* and refusing to proceed until ZA is uninstalled:
Some Apps need t be uninstalled These programs need to be uninstalled because they aren't compatible with the upgrade. Zonealarm 10 (2012)
I'm about to build my first desktop, and I have a laptop with Windows 10 (upgraded from 7 which it came with). I don't plan on using the laptop anymore, so is it possible to install the laptop's hard drive into the desktop then move the Windows install to an SSD? If not, should I just buy a Win10 key or would it be possible to contact Microsoft about transferring the OS over?
My computer is trying to install Update to Windows 10 Home, version 1511, 10586, but can't. It claims there is no system reserved partition, but there is. This computer was upgraded from Windows 7 to 10, and immediately after doing that I installed a Samsung SSD and migrated the system to it using the software that came with the SSD. The migration went well and I've been using Windows 10 for months.
All of a sudden, when trying to do some updates it claims it cannot update the system reserved partition. The partition is there, it's 100MB in size. So I tried booting from the install CD, which I burned to do the upgrade (so I know it's a good disc). My computer recognizes there's a disc in the DVD drive, but no matter how I set the bios boot order it will not boot from the DVD, so I can't do a repair on the SSD.
I bought the usb version since i don't have an optical drive bay. The problem: I can start the setup, but when i launch the installation my pc suddenly restarts and boots the usb again, so i get back at the 32/64 bit selection screen. This happens when i click "next" after choosing my drive (see included video). The drive i'm using is a Samsung 850 EVO SSD.
I have tried numerous things to fix it including: removing the ram (2x8GB) and putting it back, trying with one ram stick, removing the graphics card and use the integrated graphics card, use different usb ports, use different sata ports, removing the hdd (i can't even start the setup with the hdd plugged in).
I also downloaded Windows 10 from the official website and put it on an other usb stick, the same problem occurs.I even tried with Ubuntu and the same problem happens!! When i launch the installation my pc reboots and the setup restarts!I have made a video showing what happens (win 10): I also made a video that shows my BIOS.Everything looks fine... but it doesn't work!!
