Windows stuck in auto repair loop after trying to overclock.

[Penny5837]

Every boot it will go into automatic repair, and nothing will change, I can't reset it, and everything that I've tried doesn't work. Please help me.

By any chance did you clear your CMOS after the overclock failed? If so, check your SATA controller settings in the BIOS to make sure it's the same as it was when you installed Windows - That is, that it's either set to IDE/Legacy, AHCI (probably what it was), or RAID. If you're not sure which it was, try AHCI first, then RAID, then IDE/Legacy. You should also check to make sure that, if you installed Windows in EFI, the UEFI boot loader is set as the default boot device. Most BIOSes will prefix any boot devices that have UEFI support with UEFI.

You overclocked your GPU? Need to go into Safemode and uninstall the driver.

Try rolling back Windows. (Obviously after you have cleared the OCs).
