Why do the dots stop rotating?
I have a Dell Dimension 3100 that I upgraded to Windows 10, with no adverse effects. I recently added a widescreen monitor and a GT 730 card. This story is told in more detail in another thread. The reason for raising the issue here is that the driver is somehow in conflict and I would like to know if there is a solution
After installing the appropriate NVIDIA driver, Windows 10 will not boot. It gets as far as the black screen with the blue Windows logo and a circle of rotating dots; they spin for a few turns and then stop. I have left it for more than an hour but nothing more happens.
I see lots of threads about the boot sequence stopping with the dots rotating incessantly but none where the dots stop rotating. Can anyone tell me why this happens?
