Hey guys,
I had some issues with my HP laptop, and tried to reinstall Windows with an USB stick. I booted into advanced options from windows, went into CMD and started setup from there, removed the partitions and then installed Windows, as I have done with many other PC's, but at 25% at the Extracting Windows Files, it said the files were invalid or corrupted. So I made another USB, with another ISO, but when I restarted the PC, I got the error that there wasn't a OS installed (Duh!). But, now is my problem, I cant boot from my USB, when I press F9 during startup, my USB/DVD drive doesn't show up... So I hope I can do something in the EFI BIOS but, I need a password.
I already entered a wrong password 3 times and this is my error code:
50380800
Thanks,
Tristan
