Discuss solutions for Asus ROG Strix bootloop issues.
Hello, I'm seeking guidance on my ROG STRIX G713RM. About two years ago, I noticed the "Preparing automatic repair" warning during startup, but it was infrequent—only every few months. At that time, I ignored it and focused on upgrading my SSDs, reinstalling Windows each time. Around a year ago, I replaced the SSD to reach a total of 3TB and reinstalled Windows on the new drive. The warning persisted, but it didn't disrupt my usage until recently.
Two days ago, my laptop began looping in a boot cycle that won't terminate. I removed the extra SSD, cleared the partitions on the boot drive, and reinstalled Windows—this worked for two days before things fell back into place. When I tried to reinstall Windows again, the system crashed mid-installation.
I checked the hard drive and saw both a boot partition and a system partition, but since Windows didn't finish installing, it won't start. The crashes continue regardless of my actions. I'm at a crossroads: the device is three years old, out of warranty, and replacing it or the motherboard isn't financially viable. Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
