So many of these “help” pages assume you can get to Windows, or the Advanced Startup Options, or even a C: prompt. I’m stuck in a reboot loop after a driver upgrade failed (several were in the queue, so i’m not sure which one crashed). I can’t get to Safe Mode, and System Recovery failed (twice), even though I’d recently confirmed several good recovery points. I’d rather not reinstall Windows if not absolutely necessary. Any other ideas?

damn u really dont like windows too much. are you implying that OSX is a better os just because its so streamlined that there’s no errors on startup? this is obviously an issue but there’s no reason to be so angry. i dont believe that you’re a 30+ year “geek guru”. anyone that would call themselves a “geek guru” obviously doesn’t have that much experience.

I keep having issues with a flash drive/thumb drive. The drivers for the thumb drive will stop working and when restarting the computer to reinstall drivers, it will show me the inaccessible error. From there I can only do a system restore which takes forever but gets everything working again. After a short time I get the same issue on my flash drive and have to repeat every time I use it. I have used multiple thumb drives it happens repeatedly regardless. Any ideas?

If you had gotten the error, then attempted to perform a factory reset like I had and still been stuck on error blue screen and system repair THE ONLY FIX I FINALLY FOUND was to unplug the hard drive and plug it back in. I did so then when I got back on it still went to system repair. I then attempted to go into safe mode when a Windows error popped up and said it would need to instal Windows before accessing safe mode or something of the such. I then hit enter for okay. The computer went back to the loading screen and stayed there for a good bit. About 30 minutes passed and ta dah it brought up the computer setup screen as if it was brand new. Have had no problems since and runs great. Hope this help I understand the frustration because I couldn’t find a fix for 3 weeks solid. Goodluck!
