Recently had some window updates, now my computer doesn’t start up...

I start up and that just flashes, nothing else. Anyone know what I can do?

I’ve been trying but haven’t had success, unless I’m doing something wrong.

Hitting f8 when it starts up, right?


Ctrl alt del resets the computer when I’m on this screen...if that means anything

This screen comes up a split second before it hits that screen as well.

First thing you should do, is backup what you have. Just in case something is degraded or on the verge of failure. Hopefully it was no more than a hiccup.

But there is no such thing as too many backups.
Unless you use Unitrends :)
