When I power on my PC, it enters BIOS but fails to boot into Windows.
When I power on my PC, it enters BIOS but fails to boot into Windows.
Today, unexpectedly my PC slowed down significantly, restarted, and went into BIOS. Without much thought, I attempted to exit BIOS but it immediately returned to it. Previously, there were some audio delays or jittering, and the screen would freeze while the system kept running.
I tried replacing the CMOS battery, resetting the RAM, adjusting BIOS settings to the optimized defaults, and turned off fast boot. When I enabled CSM, the screen displayed a message asking to reboot and select the correct boot device or insert a boot media and press any key.
I use an Asus ROG STRIX X570-E motherboard with a 1TB Samsung SSD as my boot device. I’m uncertain if the issue stems from a loose cable, though all accessible cables appear securely connected, and I don’t know which one might be responsible.
My boot device (not sure what it is) is a 1TB Samsung SSD. Samsung offers several SSDs in their collection, which one are you using? I'm using the Asus ROG STRIX X570-E motherboard. What is the BIOS version for your motherboard?
I'm confident about this because I haven't modified any BIOS settings recently, and the boot priority isn't visible unless CSM is active.
BIOS version is 3603, the exact SSD listed in BIOS is SSD 970 EVO Plus.
and sorry for not mentioning this before;
EDIT
I used Windows installation media to run the command prompt and applied sfc/scannow, which detected corrupted files and repaired them, but after that, the system still went straight to BIOS.
Boot from the Windows installation media into the command prompt, run the commands and capture the screenshot.
The sole alternative is the USB connection I'm employing, which can be seen here:
