    PC boot screen freeze!

    PC load screen stops/freezes before booting everytime. I attached a picture for better understanding. I have no idea what the issue is but I checked the SSD, which is ok, checked Graphics, Processor and SMPS all are in working condition. I am only getting suspicious about either Motherboard or the Memory. What can be the issue? Please help.

    Thank you

    Do you use fast startup? If so disable this & restart the PC.
    Try a full shutdown & then startup.
    Ensure thereโ€™s no external USB drives?SD cards connected that the BIOS may be checking for boot files.

      I do not use a fast startup. I tried a full shutdown and a hard shutdown too, the same problems persist. Even on the โ€œPerforming Automatic Repairโ€ screen. The dots freezes. Any idea why?

        I suspect thereโ€™s a hard drive problem.
        Do you have Windows install media on USB? If yes then boot from this & run chkdsk - cmd prompt>chkdsk C: /r
        You can also try this from the recovery USB:
        OPTION 1:

        Insert your installation CD or USB. From Admin Command, run:

        [ol]
        [li]DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /StartComponentCleanup[/li][li]DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /CheckHealth[/li]NOTE: If it says: repairable, go to step 3, if not go to OPTION 2
        [li]Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth /Source:wim:\sources\install.wim:1 /limitaccess[/li][/ol]
        The install.wim file will be in the Sources folder of a mounted Windows 10 ISO from Microsoft Tech Bench (use ISO from OPTION ONE at link) file.

        [ol]
        [li]sfc /scannow[/li]NOTE: may have to run multiple times until you get the message: Windows Resources did not find any integrity violation.
        [/ol]
        OPTION 2:

        Open the drive where your installation media is and run Setup.exe. Follow the instruction to perform update which actually does a repair.

          I checked the drive and itโ€™s okay, it has windows installed and it works fine when I plug into my other PC as a primary boot drive and everything works normal, but if I put it into my current PC, that is having issues, the whole boot screen freezes with the โ€œPreparing Automatic Repairโ€ screen displaying the same issue. (All dots frozen instead of circling continuously)

          Thatโ€™s why I am suspecting mostly the Motherboard or the Memory but I am not sure about it. Can this kind of problem happen if thereโ€™s a motherboard or ram issue?

            I would recommend Rebuilding BCD (Boot Configuration Data) to Fix the error. You will need a bootable Windows 10 installation media for this.

            Try the following steps:
            [ul]
            [li]Insert and boot from the Windows bootable installation media DVD/USB.[/li][li]Select your preferred language and then click Next.[/li][li]Press Shift + F10 to open the command prompt after choosing the language.[/li][li]Now execute the following three commands in the command prompt one by one to rebuild BCD[/li]
            • [li]bootrec /fixmbr[/li][li]bootrec /fixboot[/li][li]bootrec /rebuildbcd[/li][/ul]
              [li]Now Type Exit and press enter to close the window[/li]


            After that, restart the computer and see if the error โ€œAutomatic Repair, Your PC did not start correctlyโ€ is resolved.

              If you are swapping the drive between PCs then this may be the problem if youโ€™re trying to boot from the drive on both devices. Thereโ€™ll be a problem on pc due to incompatible drivers.
              Is there a reason why you need to swap drives?
