My laptop won't execute a start-up. Once I turn on the laptop, the Advanced Startup page appears. And from there it seems that resetting is my only option forward. So I clicked OK and proceeded to back-up my files on an external hard disk. And then this error code shows: =FFFFFF16. What is that? Where is it coming from
I tried to do a "Startup Repair" on there - it tells me they ran into a problem and can't repair it. So I clicked "Uninstall latest quality update" and then "Uninstall latest feature update", then tried "Startup Repair" again. Nope still can't repair it. Then I went to try to back up my files again but the same error code pops up.
I see a lot of FFFFFF15 error issues on here, but not 16. Which makes me worried if it is an even severe/rare problem. Anyone has any idea where I should go from here
A kind thanks in advance.
