Have you run diagnostics?
Tap the ESC key about once a second after you see the LEDs on the keyboard flash.

Press F2 to run diagnostics.
Do not allow any updates if disk or memory fail, especially a BIOS update.

if you pass disk and memory diagnostics then try to boot into safe mode and do  disk repair (scan)

How to start windows in safe mode

 


Then Advanced => Troubleshoot => Startup Settings => Safe mode

SFC and DISM are both tools that scan and repair corrupted system files. However, SFC uses a cached version of the files, while DISM uses the internet to download and fix the files.

Try the SFC first and if that gives a message that it cannot fix the problem then try the DISM tool.

Let me know if a problem.
