  2. Black screen loop error: There was an error reseting your PC

    Hi Alen,

    As you are facing issue with black screen boot loop, I suggest you to perform Power Drain by following the steps provided below:

    • Shut down the Computer.
    • Remove all power source (including battery if it is a laptop).
    • Press and hold the power button for 15-20 seconds.
    • Connect the power source and start the computer.

    If the issue still persists, create an USB installation media (ISO) for Windows 10 using the Media Creation Tool from the link provided below:

    Download Windows 10

    After the installation media is created, follow the steps provided below to run Startup Repair.

    • Insert the installation media you created, and then restart your PC.
    • On the Install Windows screen, select Repair your computer.
    • On the Choose an option screen, select Troubleshoot>Advanced Options.
    • Click on Startup Repair.

    Hope this helps. Keep us posted on the status for further assistance.

    HP Laptop Boot Loop

    I am encountering a boot loop problem with my HP laptop. Upon startup, it shows the HP logo and loading dots for about 11 seconds, then goes to a blank screen for approximately a minute before automatically restarting. The power button does not turn off during this cycle.

    Troubleshooting Steps Taken:

    • Tried hard reset and accessing BIOS/UEFI settings.
    • Unable to boot into Safe Mode or recovery environment.
    please see here the recorded video demonstrating the boot loop behavior for reference.

    Any advice, troubleshooting steps, or insights into what might be causing this problem would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you in advance for your help and suggestions.
