Update: Turning my device completely off, waiting 15m, and turning back on again solved the issue. Apparently restarting and on/off are not the same haha.

Thanks for the help. I forgot to mention it, but I don't have a valid system restore point. I'll let the forums bang until tonight then go for a windows reinstall.

Hey everyone, My device Specs are: Surface Pro 7, Windows 10 AX201 Wireless Adapter + Bluetooth Adapter I was attempting to set up bluetooth passthrough for the Dolphin Wii Emulator. Ended up using Zadig program to change out the drivers without thinking, ended up replacing my bluetooth adapters' driver with WinUSB. I no longer care about getting the bluetooth adapter to work for dolphin (have a J27H002 chip on the way) but I do want to revert it back to normal state. It appears to be completely dysfunctional. This is probably because it isn't a USB device, and the software side of things are destroyed. The troubleshooting I've tried so far includes: -Restarting Device Several Times -Uninstalling device in device manager several times (and then restarting device) -Reinstalling Intel's AX201 drivers (and then restarting device) -Attempting to use Zadig to change drivers to anything else (Attempt fails). -Running Win10 Bluetooth Troubleshoot -Running Win10 Overall device troubleshooter Thank you for any help or guidance you can offer! Thanks!

Will do, right now we're struggling to get back into windows, but when we do i'll try that. Thank you

Hello LTT Forum, I was hoping to find some ideas on troubleshooting here. My friend has a Corsair Vengeance 5180 Gaming PC: CPU: I7-8700 GPU: RTX 2080 MoBo: MSI B360M Bazooka Plus RAM: 16gb DDR4 + 32gb Added More information is on the hyperlink above. His PC has had BSOD issues for a while now, but has gotten gradually worse over time, from BSODing every 4 months to every 10 minutes now. Additionally, after the BSOD the system boots into BIOS instead of windows, with issues detecting the SSD [Windows Boot Manager option also isn't there in bios]. The Blue screen error says whea_uncorrectable_error with no numbers attached or around it. My friend with the issues is a great distance away, so troubleshooting has been limited. We have tried running windows memory diagnostics and completing the diagnostic, but werent able to boot into windows long enough to see the results. Thank you for the time and help!

Thanks everyone for the quick replies! Both @TheDailyProcrestinator and @AndreiArgeanu for solved. Bless your souls

Hello! My question is just as the title implies. (Also, please let me know if I'm posting in the wrong spot!) I've had my PC since ~2015/2016 Specs: CPU: Ryzen 5 1500x MOBO: ASRock AB350M Pro4 GPU: RX 480 Sapphire Nitro+ 4GB Storage: 1TB WD Blue RAM: Ballistix Sport LT 8GB (2 x 4GB) Case: APEX 21N-01 (w/ Added Fans) Power Supply: EVGA 500w Bronze The PC has never been manually overclocked (except "stock" over-clock on GPU from Sapphire Nitro). The PC also has an AC1300 PCIe Wifi-Adapter, but I don't know how much that would impact the price. Thank you for any help!

This is really the only picture I have to work with personally. We have tried continuing with the installation process, selecting Drive 1 Partition 3. It will "successfully" (it says) install windows, then proceed to restart. It then boots back from flash drive like nothing happened. Note: Bios boot order is set to desired drive first, compounded with that we have tried to boot from desired drive directly from bios with no avail. When attempted from bios, the screen flashes black for a moment and nothing happens. If my friend is down for it, I think we'll try using Gpart in Manjaro like @thomas2000 suggested, but diskpart didn't do anything before so I don't have high hopes. Thanks for the continued efforts by the way!

Right I see what you mean. While using diskpart we were booted from the Windows Installation Media. During the Windows Install process, where you select the drive to install onto, there is an option to delete or format partitions and that did nothing. One time we got the drive to read as all unallocated space, but then the partitions and the data magically reappeared. We have yet to get back into Windows on his PC : (

Hey man! We actually got into Manjaro and backed up files. Windows will not install, not even a little bit. Diskpart wont clean, clean all, or remove partitions, neither will MSI Secure Erase Plus. Diskpart clean says it was successful but does nothing. Windows Installer drive selector delete/format does nothing. We've tried removing disk attributes with attribute disk clear readonly but to no avail. We've tried installing windows to the largest partition which gets us until it needs to restart, then it goes back into the Installer beginning. Going into BIOS we can't successfully boot right from the desired drive. My takeaway from all this, is that Manjaro is savage. If I had that in highschool I could be doing all sorts of shenanigans on school PC's. At this point I suspect the drive is too far gone.

Savage! In that case, I think we'll go for that then. Thanks a bunch Syn!! :^ )

Linux and Ubuntu are a bit harder... My buddy is newer to PC's than I am, and we both havn't touched linux. Still, I like the idea and will likely move forward with reinstalling windows! Thank you for the help, I'll let you know how it goes (probably in future days, as my friend and I are a bit burntout)

Sounds good! Bit more work than I was hoping for, but it's better than having a $2000 paperweight! Thanks for your help Airdragonz, if it works i'll mark it as solved :^ )

Both the drives are detected in bios as connected, however only the Force MP300 shows up in BBS Boot options (I believe this drive has the Win10 install). I don't know how to check the efi partition specifically, unless I misunderstood. Thanks for the help btw; if it is corrupted, then what's my next step?

Hello everyone! I've been trying to help troubleshoot my friends issue for a while now, to no avail. Please offer any help you can. His PC is the: Corsair Vengeance 5180 CPU: i7-8700 GPU: GeForce RTX 2080 Mobo: b360 RAM: 2x8gb DDr4 2666 Storage 1: Force MP300 Storage 2: Seagate 2tb HDD OS: Windows 10 Essentially, on the night of 10/3 he got a blue screen of death and decided to call it a night, he restarted the computer and went to bed. The next morning his PC was on UEFI screen. Restarting PC results in a return to BIOS; enabling Optane Genie in bios (he does NOT have optane drive) results in an endless windows/Vengeance startup loop. We have tried fiddling with UEFI settings, most notably: boot priorities and BBS Boot Options, Fast Boot On/Off, Optane Genie On/Off, returning to default settings. We have also tried using Windows 10 Installation Media to attempt to repair or restore his system. The repair/troubleshoot did nothing. The restore had two options, one from 10/3 afternoon, and one from 10/2; both was "not completed successfully." The pickle of the situation is compounded by: I'm not near his PC, can only discord call him. They can't easily access the internals of the PC (to re-insert ram or unplug and replug drives). Thank you for all y'alls help! P.S. I posted this in "Windows" forum too, not sure which is correct, so I added here also.
