Pc problems

[Fieldsy12]

I turned on my pc and everytime it goes to the asus loading screen then it goes black and keeps restarting my pc over and over again and I don't know what to do

Check the motherboard for a cmos battery like a oversized watch battery take that out for a few minutes pit it back in and test.

What if that doesn't work?

[RS2007GOD]

Resit the ram sticks one at a time and see if it posts.

Boot loops are often a bios issue. If it's a boot device issue it shouldn't loop at all. Clearing CMOS should help but if you can load the bios to begin with, I'd simply suggest loading optimized defaults from there. Was this a new build? Can you provide more background to this issue?

Yeah I can go into the bios settings but I don't know what to do lol

In the last tab of the BIOS screen, the far right side, there should be an option to load optimized defaults, start there

If it loaded the defaults, save and exit, see if it boots.

I went to the save thing and is said I haven't made any changes even though I changed the defaults

1. New pc?

2. Working fine, then suddenly this problem occurred out of the blue?

3. Did you introduce new parts?

Were you resetting within the operating system level? It's likely the OS tried to fix something in the EFI partition and messed up when you cancelled half way. It's an uncommon error, but has happened to me before.

Idk maybe so what do I do now?

Well, if you have the windows install disk you can boot into the install disk. Inside there is a repair boot loader option that may be able to resolve this issue. If it fails, remove your drive, get a new spare drive, reinstall windows there, boot into new installation and connect old drive so you can migrate your old stuff over.

Why do I have to get a new hard drive I don't want to pay for another one

Well you don't have to, that's only if suggestion 1 fails and the installer disk can't fix the issue. Otherwise, it's kinda hard to say if it's a mobo issue or the boot loader that's having issues. 

[RS2007GOD]

if you dont want to do that then reinstall windows on the hhd you have but you will loose all your data etc

I don't understand though why would my hard drive just stop working lol

[Damocles]

It didn't stop working, you simply corrupted to EFI data on it by cancelling the reset. It's not your fault, more like a series of unfortunate turn outs, but the drive is likely 100% working if it's not making clacking noise.

So how do I fix this then?

[Damocles]

Installer disk for windows. Select the drive, and right before you install, there is an option to repair the boot loader. This will fix it or at least should as it was meant for this type of problem.

I don't have an installer disk windows 10 is on my hard drive lol

If you're currently able to contact for help you obviously have a working computer elsewhere. Use that and download the installer onto a usb. That should work the same as a disk. Get it from microsoft's website.
