Dear Clever people,
I am trying to start the machine after uninstalling componants and putting them back in. My issue is that the computer starts and then rather than going on the home screen it goes blue and says that it failed to start correctly.

"Automatic repair
Your PC did not start correctly
Press restart to restart your PC which can sometimes fix the problem. You can also press 'Advanced Options' to try other options to repair your PC. '

I have tried restarting the machine 5 times.
What should I do next please. I genuinely have no idea.
 
What did you remove? I would start by reseating all the components you removed and check all power cables too.
 
Do you have multiple SSDs\HDDs? if so check that the boot order is correct and boots off the drive with Windows installed.

Was the PC working fine before you removed componants? If so which ones did you remove and was it the same ones you put back in?
 
Thank all of you for your comments. I tried lots of different things. It turned out to be a softwear bug. I wiped all apps and reinstalled windows. Then its now working. X
That would be perfect time
