Windows 10 starts without any logo.
Windows 10 starts without any logo.
During recent Windows 10 installations, after the standard BIOS logo appears, the system will begin booting yet retain the BIOS icon, displaying only a small spinning symbol at the bottom. This behavior was observed on my Dell laptop when I previously used Windows, where the screen flickered and the BIOS logo remained visible instead of the Windows logo. Eventually, it transitioned into the login screen after a lengthy boot process.
The label appears to be "Gigabyte Ultra Durable," and the image refers to your specific product.
It seems there was a mix-up in the boot settings. Initially, Windows might show an error because it’s using UEFI instead of the default BIOS mode. Later, when switching to UEFI, the system could assume it’s running on MBR and prompt you to change it. However, the hardware itself is designed to handle this transition smoothly, often without noticeable delay. After reinstalling Windows 10, the setup would detect the UEFI setting and proceed accordingly, eventually confirming the correct configuration.
