I recently decided to factory reset my pc and after it finished I got put into the booting up screen however, whenever its almost done booting up it resets and has to start all over again and I can't seem to access anything on my computer at all.
Solved My computer keeps restarting itself.

My pc was very slow recently and a lot of memory was being taken up by a lot of third party apps.
How did you perform the reset?
(What steps)
Where did the install media come from and how was it created?
Does the system boot at all or is it in the loop?
Can you access safe mode?

I searched up factory reset in the taskbar went to settings and chose local network to proceed with the reset, I am unable to enter safe mode and is able to boot however keeps on looping before going to a black screen and attempting to loop again.
@PeterOz may have more to add to this.
Would suggest that you use the Windows install media and reinstall windows 10.
Delete all the partitions and allow Windows to recreate them during the install.
Then install the drivers in the proper order.

Sorry for the delay.

How To Install Windows 10 From USB - YouTube
In the video at 2:35 Where to install Windows. Highlight each partition and delete.
Then install on the unallocated space.
In the video at 2:54 you will notice it restarts the computer.
When you are doing this and you get to that point Remove the usb stick whilst it is restarting.
Also if you want to setup a local account instead of logging in with a Microsoft account
Turn off your wireless network and or remove the network cable.
This point is 3.32 in the video - Choose I don't have internet.
If you want to log in with a Microsoft account then leave the network as is.
Before doing any install, it is a good idea to go to the support page for your system. Download the drivers you are going to need i.e. chipset, sound, video, wireless, etc. Whilst Win10 has a lot of native drivers, Microsoft drivers are designed for ease of use and are NOT designed for any type of performance. Store these drivers on another usb or you can even just make a folder on your install usb when you are finished making the install usb. Copy the drivers into that folder.
When you are finished with the Windows install, then install your drivers.
