What have you tried already?: Removed all USB, Tried EC Restart, Attempted BIOS but couldn’t switch to Legacy startup
When did it start producing the issue: just now
Did you install new drivers or software?: Nope- blue screened after playing Cult of the Lamb 😓
Can you provide images/videos to show us the issue:

Are you in dGPU mode?

low trout Jul 19, 2023, 12:02 AM

#

I dont know

hushed ginkgo Jul 19, 2023, 12:03 AM

#

But you can boot to bios and have images on screen?

low trout Jul 19, 2023, 12:03 AM

#

Yes

hushed ginkgo Jul 19, 2023, 12:03 AM

#

So boot to bios and see if it says discrete graphics or dynamic graphics selected.

low trout Jul 19, 2023, 12:04 AM

#

Ah ok

#

Im in Discrete

hushed ginkgo Jul 19, 2023, 12:04 AM

#

Change to dynamic and reboot

low trout Jul 19, 2023, 12:05 AM

#

Would that be switchable graphics?

hushed ginkgo Jul 19, 2023, 12:06 AM

#

Yea

low trout Jul 19, 2023, 12:06 AM

#

hushed ginkgo Jul 19, 2023, 12:06 AM

#

Yes pick switchable and reboot

low trout Jul 19, 2023, 12:09 AM

#

Okay

#

Still nothing

Ok. Something completely broke on your windows install it seems. It what I assume to be your windows install as the first boot device.

#

Is that your windows SSD at the top?

low trout Jul 19, 2023, 12:13 AM

#

I think so yes

hushed ginkgo Jul 19, 2023, 12:13 AM

#

Do you have another pc?

low trout Jul 19, 2023, 12:14 AM

#

None that are available no

hushed ginkgo Jul 19, 2023, 12:14 AM

#

I think you need to reinstall windows.

low trout Jul 19, 2023, 12:14 AM

#

That’s what I was assuming after a while

#

Thank you! I can get that going right now

#

@hushed ginkgo should I completely remove all files? Or is it possible to still keep my stuff

hushed ginkgo Jul 19, 2023, 12:20 AM

#

You can try to keep stuff, but it’s best to wipe everything for a clean windows install. Not sure how important the stuff you have on there is.

low trout Jul 19, 2023, 12:21 AM

#

Not very, just wanted to know , I’ve learned from my past windows mistakes to constantly have trust issues with keeping stuff on the internal driver

#

Okay so I’ve tried to restart it but it just

#

Won’t

#

It starts the process and then immediately undoes it

hushed ginkgo Jul 19, 2023, 12:34 AM

#

You reinstalled windows with a USB installer?

low trout Jul 19, 2023, 12:35 AM

#

I’ve been able to get to the troubleshoot screen and tried from there

#

I’m assuming that’s not gunna work then

hushed ginkgo Jul 19, 2023, 12:36 AM

#

Ya. Next step is with a usb instillation media then.

low trout Jul 19, 2023, 12:37 AM

#

I am

#

In agony

#

Okay so that’ll have to wait till tomorrow or whenever I get the chance- prob be best to just take it to a shop to get it like that because I’m in a situation with little resources in the house

#

Thanks for the help, I’ll update tomorrow (it’s like 2 am here)

#

Reinstalled windows and works, thank you again @hushed ginkgo CattoThumbsUp
