Sorry for the repost, but my older thread died, and i really need help for my problem.

 

basically, my brother's computer doesn't turn on. it posts, but doesn't get any further than showing the windows logo.

 

the windows install is fine, because when i took my brother's SSD and put it into my computer, everything worked.

 

what could be wrong? help please!

Can you boot into "safe mode"?

Don't ask to ask, just ask... please 🤨
