    The video displayed:
    attempting to recover installation
    restoring your previous version of Windows

    What is the age of the computer?
    Which components had been replaced?
    When were the last tests performed on the drive?
    What is the current Windows version and build?

    Open the website for the computer or motherboard manufacturer > enter the product or serial number or model > select the operating system > view drivers and BIOS > post a URL or hyperlink into the thread.

    1) Find a flash drive that you can format (> or = 8 GB)
    2) Create a bootable Windows 10 iso:
    Download Windows 10
    3) Power on the computer and boot to the BIOS boot menu:
    List of PC brands with their corresponding hot-keys
    (On custom computers temporarily change the bios boot order so that external USB hard drive is on top)
    4) Boot to the external USB hard drive
    5) It may take 5 - 10 minutes for the iso to load while viewing the Microsoft Windows icon
    6) Select language, time, currency, and keyboard, or click next
    7) Click troubleshoot
    8) Click Startup repair
    9) If start up repair fails advance to the next step
    10) Click system restore (start with the oldest restore point and keep repeating towards the most recent restore point; if system restore fails or if there are no restore points advance to the next step)

    Use a camera or smart phone camera to take pictures and post images of the commands and results for all of these steps:

    11) Click command prompt > Administrator X:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe > X:\Sources> type:
    12) c:
    13) dir
    14) d:
    15) dir
    16) bcdedit /enum
    17) bcdedit | find "osdevice"
    18) diskpart
    19) list disk
    20) list volume
    21) select disk 0
    22) list partition
    23) select partition 1
    24) detail partition
    25) select partition 2
    26) detail partition
    27) select partition 3
    28) detail partition
    29) select partition 4
    30) detail partition
    31) continue these steps if there are any additional partitions on disk 1
    32) select disk 1
    33) list partition
    34) select partition 1
    35) detail partition
    36) select partition 2
    37) detail partition
    38) continue these steps if there are any additional partitions on disk 2
    39) exit
    40) bootrec /fixmbr
    41) bootrec /fixboot
    42) bootrec /scanos
    43) bootrec /rebuildbcd
    44) reboot

    Please use a camera or smart phone camera to take pictures of the above commands and results and post images into the thread.
    Incase there are any problems posting images please use one drive or drop box share links and 7zip to keep the images organized.

    What is the Make and Model$ of the computer/motherboard?
    Download the Windows 10 ISO image and burn it to a USB Flash Drive with the Media Creation Tool.
    Once completed, put it into the computer and restart and boot into Setup, (Bios) Usually the Del key, depending on the make.
    Once in the Bios go to the Security tab, Disable Secure Boot or change it to Setup Mode. Go to the Boot tab. Your USB Flash Drive, if burned correctly, the tool should show up under the UEFI Bios boot options, Move it to First Boot Device, Save and Exit.
    You now should be able to boot to the USB, Choose your Language, You can try Repair Your Computer, or hold the Shift key and press Enter to go directly to the Command Prompt. Try the commands in Post #2

    No, its not, but it is copyright Microsoft Corporation.

    This appears to be an upgrade in progress, but failing. The first screen is normal for Setup files loading...

    -screen1.png

    Next is the odd one out, it says "Auto Adjustment in progress.." This seems to be the system trying to adjust to the monitor it finds it's using, and may be what's interrupting the upgrade. Perhaps having two monitors connected is confusing it?

    -screen2.png

    Then the upgrade fails and reverts to the previous system.

    -screen3.png

    -screen4.png

    and then the cycle repeats...

    Please update the system specs in the "My Computer" section:

    I hadn't noticed this thread was that old. I wonder if the PC has been looping ever since?

    @Lopseypop is online, apparently. Perhaps they never found their way back to this thread to update us.
