If you were able to get into the advanced boot menu, try using the instructions on the following page to access the Startup settings menu and choose safe mode with networking. I don't have the windows installer media I upgraded from within windows update. So basically I have UEFI Bios but don't know if my system is in UEFI or legacy mode (I don't even know what that means) So, I got into the advanced boot menu and don't know what to do. Don't try each thing at once, go one step at a time.Įnabling or disabling Compatibility support module (CSM) in the bios may work as well. Also, you would be wise to possibly also try resetting your bios to default settings and rebooting. You might also try unplugging your boot drive, power up until you get the no bootable disk screen, powering off, reconnecting your drive and attempting to boot again. If you upgraded from within windows update, you're screwed in that regard. Barring that working, you might be able to access the boot menu using the windows installer media if you created installer media and upgraded from that. Some systems require Shift+F8, so try both. I mean actually start doing that maybe even before you hit the power or simultaneously. You have to start mashing F8 repeatedly, as fast as you can, and not stop until the advanced boot menu appears. What are your system specs? Does your system have a UEFI bios and is your system in UEFI or legacy mode? You can't just "press" F8.

Tried pressing F8 and it takes me back to the same black screen with the blinking dash No my system only has one drive, and it was an upgrade from windows 8.1. Have you tried booting to safe mode? It sounds like either a boot partition conflict or a driver issue.

Ok, enough stern bashing on you for not having stuff backed up. But with free cloud storage, there's no reason anymore for anybody to not have their stuff protected. Even backing your important files up to a 20 dollar pile of DVD's is better than nothing. If for any reason you lose your files, you will have nobody to blame but yourself. Having all your important data in only one place when additional drives or free cloud storage for backups is either cheap or free is just begging to lose all your files.

All the time, everyday thousands and thousands of them just quit working. You're first problem is that you're not very smart for not having your important files backed up. Is there more than one internal drive on this build, if so, disconnect all secondary drives and see if it will boot.
