This seems to be more of a common problem that I would have guessed.
I resurrected a friend's old laptop (new batter and an SSD). It was released with Windows 7 but installed 10 instead, installation went fine. However I had issues on the first Windows loading but I have lost count of how many times there has been some sort of issue with 'just a moment'. Anyway it installed and the laptop ran fine. Took it round to my fiance's, connected to her WiFi and closed it rather than shut down.
She turns it on later that day and it throws the automatic boot repair at her. We have tried every single option to resolve but each one fails. My guess is Windows is corrupted or it's the HD.
There's a twist though. A friend of mine with a different laptop, a few months old had exactly the same problem just happen to her. And like the other one - none of the solutions work. I don't mind installing Windows again with the first laptop as it was given to me but much more reluctant to do so on the second one until I have exhausted all my options.
My question is - does any one have a clue as to what could have caused this? It could be a coincidence but boy what timing.
