Hi @Nicc4,

 

Thank you for the details.

 

Try these steps:

Perform a Hard Reset:

  • Shut down your notebook completely.
  • Disconnect any external devices.
  • Remove the battery if it's accessible. Hold the power button for at least 15 seconds.
  • Reconnect the battery and power adapter, then turn on the notebook.

Automatic Repair:

  • After performing the hard reset, restart your notebook.
  • When it starts, if you see a "Preparing Automatic Repair" message, let it complete. It might resolve the issue.

Boot into Safe Mode:

  • If the "Choose your keyboard layout" screen appears again, select your layout.
  • Attempt to access the Advanced Troubleshooting options.
    • You can try pressing F8, F11, or Shift + F8 during startup, depending on your model.
  • Navigate to Troubleshoot > Advanced options > Startup Settings > Restart.
  • Press F4 to boot in Safe Mode and see if that allows you to log in.

Restore the System:

  • If you can access Advanced Options, use System Restore to take your notebook back to a previous state when it was working correctly.
  • Go to Troubleshoot > Advanced options > System Restore and follow the prompts.

Reset the PC:

  • As a last resort, consider resetting your notebook. Ensure to select the option to keep your files, if possible.
  • Navigate to Troubleshoot > Reset this PC > Keep my files.

I hope this helps.
