ok so every 6months or so I reformat my pc, I went to do this again last night but for the life of me I cannot get it to work right this time. last time I did a clean install of win 10 it worked flawlessly.
here is what happens,
created a bootable image using the win 10 tool
install it to my ssd
once finished it will boot into windows for the first time but after 10 mins or so it will black screen and I have to restart
when restarting it gets stuck on the windows logo with the white circle spinning but never gets passed this point
after the third attempt it takes me to the diagnostics but finds nothing wrong
I have tried booting into safe mode but I get the same problem
I know my ssd is fine because when I get to windows after the main install I have installed Samsung magician and checked the drive
I have wiped the drive using Samsung magician and the bootable usb option in there.
also wiped the drive several times in the win 10 setup
its driving me mad right now as it usually takes an hour at most but this has been going since 12 am last night with 0 progress. any help or suggestions are great thanks in advance
