HP Pavilion x2 Detahable #T6S89UA#ABA
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I don't know what happened or if I did anything in particular but my HP Pavilion x2 Detachable is not starting up or allowing me to get past the blue screens. When it starts up, it asks me to "Choose your keyboard layout". I choose US and it then takes me to another blue screen titled "Choose an Option". The only 2 options on this screen are "Troubleshoot" or "Turn off your PC". When choosing "Troubleshoot", I have these options  and then these messages are what occurs when clicking on it. 

 

  1. System Restore - A box with a red X that states "To use System Restore, you must specify which Windows installation to restore. Restart the computer, select an operating system, and then select System Restore".** I of course, can't do anything after that. 
  2. Go back to the previous version - when clicking this it takes me to another blue screen with the following message: "We ran into a problem and won't be able to take you back to the previous version of Windows. Try resetting your PC instead of (Troubleshoot>Reset this PC). 
  3. Startup Repair - "Startup Repair couldn't repair your PC"
  4. Command Prompt - I've tried numerous prompts which have all been unsuccessful. 
  5. System Image Recovery - "Windows cannot find a system image on this computer"
  6. UEFI Firmware Settings - Really don't know what to do here but I did try to click on "Run Startup" and it took me back to the same thing. 

Any help or assistance is GREATLY APPRECIATED!!!!!
