Morning,
I uninstalled the software for the integrated webcam on my HP Pavillion laptop (CyberLink WebCam), which initially seemed to be fine, but after a reboot I get the HP logo, and then the blue 'choose option' screen. None of the options work. System recovery and System restore do nothing, and I don't have a 'start-up' settings option. I can't get the machine to boot in safe mode either. I'm stuck in a loop and not sure what to do with it.
How could uninstalling the webcam cause this problem? and how on earth do i fix it.
Thanks

You need to recover your system manually follow these steps.
1: shut down your notebook.
2: press f11 repeatedly as soon as you press the power button.
3: select troubleshoot
4: select advanced options then select startup repair follow on screen instructions.
If this doesn't work then repeat first three steps then.
4: select refresh your PC option.
5: select keep my personal files.(options may vary depending on Windows edition)
6: follow on screen instructions.
This still problem isn't solved then you need to reinstall Windows manually. On other PC download Windows 10 iso and create bootable USB/DVD (prefer DVD) insert this bootable USB/DVD to your detective notebook and reinstall Windows 10.
Here is detailed guide.

Thankyou for your reply.
Unfortunately startup repair doesn't work, and 'select startup repair' isn't an option on my machine. None of the blue screen options work at all.
I don't have access to a machine with Windows 10 on (at least not for a couple of weeks).
I can't work out how to download the ISO with my old laptop (Windows 7). I'm just going round in circles with this and can't work it out.
