Windows 10 not moving past boot screen
Hi,
My computer won't move past the boot screen during boot. Every time I boot it, it goes theough the boot screen (spinning dots etc.), then the keyboard and mouse lights turn on. But the screen flickers, and it shows up the same screen again, but the silpinning dots are more laggier. The mouse is fully visible and responds to input, and the computer boots properly, as the boot log doesn't show any hanging. It worked yesterday, and nothing new was installed, just browsing the web. Safe mode boots fine, and I have tried to set it to clean boot, but the problem persists.
Even if the boot was somehow taking long, which it shouldn't on an i7 system with a SSD, then why is the mouse responding, and keyboard lights coming up?
I'm confused,
Ali
EDIT: Wiping and re-installing Windows, or even a refresh is not an option, as I have too many programs, games, and VMs that would take days to reinstall, and I have many programming and rendering projects due next week.
