"Preparing Automatic Repairs"
Acer 5810TZG Laptop was running W7. Yesterday upgraded to W10. Worked for 10 minutes then crashed. I get the message "Preparing Automatic Repair" "We will restart it for you" "System Thread Exception not handled".
It then loops though this.
Tried forcing it off and restarting - no change.
Tried tapping f8 while restarting - not change
Can get to the f2 menus but these do not seem to have any useful options for my problem - such as "Safe Mode"
Tried to "chat" with microsoft - no appointments can be made at least for a week!
I do not have an official boot disc but I do have full disc image made on external HDD a couple of months ago, also a "Drivers and Applications" DVD, also a "Repair" DVD, made 2 years ago. Also have a set of DVDs I made a couple of years ago called "Recovery Discs" (or Factory Default).
However; my entry to the laptop is limited to the f2 menu; it may disregard any disc presented to it?
I welcome your advice (In the meantime I can communicate with my Kindle Voyage, Chromebook, Smartphone (Android), 2 tablets (also Android) and a W8.1 netbook - (not attempted upgrade on that).
