Ok. I've spent today turning my computer on an off, attempting to fix my master boot record, run virus scans, and try to diagnose my problem- but for some reason, I'm coming up short. My problem is that: Whenever i power on my desktop (Specs Below) it either: gets stuck on the motherboard splash page; or freezes on the login window. Now on the one or two time's I was able to access my computer, I tried a variety of attacks to combat these errors.
Update: I'm currently commencing a System restore, I will update again if that fixes the issue.
1. I restarted into troubleshoot/recovery mode and used advanced options to reset my master boot record. I used:
bootrec.exe
bootrec.exe /FixMbr
2. I ran a variety of anti virus programs such as:
-Malwarebytes
-Hitman Pro
-Malwarebytes anti rootkit
-TDSSkiller.
(all came up empty)
After restarting, neither of these options worked. And I was greeted with a screen saying "trying to diagnose your problem," following that was "Attempting to fix" and then finally another restart, which left me back where I had started.
So now I turn to you, Toms hardware community.
Here are the specs of my computer. I should probably also say that I lost my OS disk (like the genius I am). Feel free to message me or respond with any questions.
