You’re seeking guidance on repairing your powerful gaming PC before seeking professional help, as you’re a student preparing for studies. Your system runs at top 2022 specifications. You encountered a persistent boot screen that lingers longer than usual—normally it boots in just a few seconds. After hitting the reset, it attempted a repair but before that you disabled regentc.exe to access recovery tools and entered safe mode. You stopped doing this because you’re concerned about data loss from children.

You then tried resetting or reinstalling Windows via UEFI using old USB drives. It turned out your PC was slow to open Steam before the issue started. The UEFI loading process was extremely slow, taking about an hour to appear, and the setup process dragged on for over 20 minutes with no response. After that, it booted normally into BIOS without any strange delays or errors, ending up with a black screen.

You suspect either a BIOS virus rootkit, a corrupted BIOS, a dead Nvme SSD, or even hardware failure requiring a new motherboard. You’re looking for advice and want to resolve this before your school and work commitments interfere.

I discovered the problem during a detailed investigation into this issue connected to the subject matter. A slow startup can indicate various factors now that I’ve examined the process and tested troubleshooting steps for my computer. Initially, it might stem from hardware damage, incompatibility, or insufficient power supply. Thanks to my data being preserved, I was able to resume studying. It could also relate to a dead or low-battery CMOS unit. Try disconnecting peripherals such as HDDs and SSDs; in my experience, a faulty SATA SSD caused by a corrupted Steam download halted functionality. Disconnect the hardware and test again to see if booting speeds improve. To restore boot tools or recovery options, use the command `bcdedit /set { default } safeboot minimal` in the command prompt. My approach suggests enabling boot tools via F8 or pressing F10/F11 during startup to return to the blue screen menu. If the BIOS is corrupted, consider replacing the CMOS battery or purchasing a new BIOS chip from the motherboard.
