Hey guys, so I recently acquired a 32gb optane drive. Upon inserting it, my computer ran with the message Preparing Automatic Repair. Unfortunately this just takes me to a blue automatic repair screen saying my PC did not start correctly. I have tried several restarts and other options but it isn't working. Taking out the optane yields no change.
My GPU: RX 370
MB: B150 Gaming M3 (Ms-7978)
CPU: intel i5-6500 CPU 3.20 ghz

I do not believe Optane will work with your i5-6500 6th gen CPU.

Inserting it and powering up tried to reconfigure. And failed.
Removing it, the system is 'in the middle' of trying to get it to work, and again fails.

Boot from your OS install media and try the Repair function.
