Powers up , but blank screen - and hard drive light activity?. You see the boot process but hangs at part of the Windows boot phase? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cclarry 13,066 Posted January 16 Ok...for some reason my Windows boot manager took a crap...so I couldn't access my OS Drive. I had been wanting to swap out the 500 SSD for the 1 TB...so this was that opportunity! I had to move the entire 1 TB drive to a different drive by the Command Prompt. Took ALL DAY to copy the files to the other drive...and I just now got Windows installed on the 1 TB...now the real fun begins! 1 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

To be honest Larry, I never did come up with the culprit, other than Win 10 updates. Because now the same computer has been rock solid for over a year now!! AMD FX 6300. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No worries Mibby...they're solid. I don't believe that it had anything to do with the CPU/Motherboard... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You could've fixed that by booting with a Windows 10 installation disk and using the repair tools. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
