Satellite C850 stuck in automatic repair loop

Hey Everyone,
So I have a issue that really causng me problems.
Many times, my laptop goes to the blue screen of death and restarts.
This time, it randomly said "your PC did not start correctly" shut down and went directly to automatic repair.
Now, Im not able to get it to start properly. It keeps restarting and every time it goes to options such as doing system recovery, start-up repair, start-up setting, restarting etc. it just keeps looping with no way out. The problem is, my laptop is telling me I don't have an administrator account on it so I am unable to do any of the advanced options.
I really need to get my computer to work because I have files on it that I need. recovering those files is my number 1 priority.
Please, help. I would realy appreciate it.
Thanks

Ok so in the first picture
it shows what happens when i click system restore. What its displaying there is, i have no administrator account. So at the bottom it displays "Forgot your password or dont see your account?" I click on that to see if i can find my account, instead it tell me to restart (as you can see in the second picture)
which just loops and brings me back to the beginning.
In the third picture
it shows what happens when i click Command Prompt. What its displaying there is, i have no administrator account. So at the bottom it displays "Forgot your password or dont see your account?" I click on that to see if i can find my account, instead it tell me to restart (as you can see in the fourth picture)
which just loops and brings me back to the beginning. So both System restore and command prompt just loop after being clicked.
Then there is Start-up Setting. Here when i click it, it displays the options shown in picture 5.
Then after clicking any of the f1 threw f10 options it restarts and goes back to the beginning.
Any more questions feel free to ask. If you still dont understand i shall try to make a video.

Server 2012 R2 Essentials stuck in Automatic repair loop on every reboot

We are running Windows Server 2012 R2 Essentials on a brand new Dell PowerEdge T110. Nothing new has been installed or are we running any special software. This server is a doing DHCP, Domain Controller and DNS. It is also intergrating the Office365.
I am assuming a windows update did this but i cannot pinpoint when exactly this happened and which update since it was a couple months ago. But everytime we try to reboot this server it goes to that Windows 2012 repair screen and asks us if we want to troubleshoot.
I am able to break this loop by going into safe more and then rebooting but this doesnt fix it, it only allows us to then boot windows normally once after that. But this can only be done when we are onsite and not remotely so we havent rebooted this server
or ran new windows updates in quite some time.
Any help or input would be appreciated.
Thank You

Yoga 2 Pro Windows 8.1 stuck in automatic repair loop

So my Yoga 2 Pro is stuck in the (in)famous Windows 8 Automatic Repair Loop, and I'm not sue how to fix it now. I unfortunately neglected to create a Recovery USB stick, so what are my options without it?
I've already tried booting the computer with the Novo button and choosing System Recovery, but at that point the system goes right back into the Automatic Repair loop. I'd strongly prefer to back up my data before resintalling Windows if that's an option--is it possible to stick the SSD into another computer to do so?
Also, would a USB recovery disc created by someone else with a Y2P be useable on my system? I don't need the full partition image since the one already on mine should suffice. I'm also unsure of my system's Windows 8 Product Key, where can I get that if/when I do need to reinstall Windows?
Thanks for any help, it's greatly appreciated.

First and foremost, good luck:
Method 1:
Wait for the machine to boot into the 'Automatic repair couldn't repair your PC' error message.
Click the 'Advanced Options' button
Open cmd and type:
bootrec /fixMBR
bootrec /Fixboot
bootrec /rebuildBCD
and also
chkdsk /r c:
chkdsk /r d:
Method 2:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iNKEsOF7e4M
Method 3 (copied from a youtube comment):
1. Turn on the computer.
2. Wait for the machine to boot into the 'Automatic repair couldn't repair your PC' error message.
3. Click the 'Advanced Options' button
4. Click the 'Troubleshoot' button
5. Click the 'Advanced options' button
6. Click the 'Startup Settings' button
7. Wait for the system to reboot into the 'Startup Settings' menu (is the same menu for safe mode)
8. Select the 'Disable early launch anti-malware protection' option. (Press '8')
9. If this worked for you, you should now boot into windows.
10. Now you can shutdown your system and it should hopefully work first time the next time you start the system.

Lenovo G780 stuck in Automatic Repair Loop after Windows 8 update

My recent Windows 8 update stuck my computer into an infinite automatic repair loop which results in a blue screen amd the process repeats itself. I tried the OneKey restore feature and the system recovery feature just hangs then it goes back to the same loop issue with rebooting. I called Lenovo for recovery discs since I don't have any any but my concern is does it matter if I mentioned whether I had a 32 or 64 bit OS? I told her to make sure it was for a Windows 8 system amd she just said it works for the G780 models. I'm just hoping these discs work.for a 64 bit system

It should work. Support cannot send you recovery disks if you didn't provide them your serial number. They can check the correct pre-installed OS from your serial number so I'm sure they're sending out the correct disks.

Never ending automatic repair loop

I'm working on a client's HP ENVY TouchSmart 4-1215dx Ultrabook that is stuck in a never-ending automatic repair loop. I have done a system diag...all passed . Tried multiple ways to get into BIOS to do a repair from a USB stick made from another OS 8....but can't get into BIOS to change the boot. Tried F11 to do factoy resest....just puts me back into the loop. I have a feeling my client downloaded a bad 8.1. Considering pulling the HDD and using my desktop to at least try and save her personal data....Please help!

That would be the best thing to first do and then use the recovery media of which you will now have to order since the O/S seems corrupted beyond repairs. This way you can be sure the recovery media will restore it back to factory install and hopefully they will not do this again til they will consult first before upgrading the O/S.

Hp 2000 preparing automatic repair loop

I recently purchased the notebook and do not have a windows 8 disk and cannot do anything from the InsydeH20 setup utility version F.37. How can i get it to boot up?

Hi CodyC,

I see that you are stuck in an automatic repair loop. From all my research it appears that you do need either an installation disc or a recovery disc. If you can get into into safe mode then you can try this Microsoft Answers link but with it being Windows 8 you need to get to the OS to trigger safe mode

Automatic Repair Loop

When I turn my computer on, the Automatic Repair screen comes up. I have tried almost all of the Advanced Options and nothing has worked. I DO NOT want my data deleted! I have hundreds of photos that are not backed up anywhere else. I also cannot find my disc that came with the computer (which could be used for recovery I'm assuming). Can I somehow fix this on my own or will I need to take it to a professional?
Not very happy with this, looks like it has been a problem for a lot of customers.

The latest critical update from Microsoft (7/20/2015) seems to have created this automatic repair loop. Widows 8 came installed - I upgraded to 8.1. The only suggestion provided by HP that I have not tried is to get Windows disks and try to boot the computer from them and use the system repair tool. How successful is this? How do I get the appropriate software?

HP Pavillion TS Laptop stuck in "preparing automatic repair" loop.

My HP laptop has run perfectly up until now.
When I turn the device on, it tells me that it's "preparing automatic repair" and it stays there, I've waited for hours on end but it doesn't seem to really be doing anything. All the f# keys work perfectly except f11, the one I need to use to attempt to restore the OS to a date when it actually worked. While it'd be neat if all my data could be recovered, it's not required. Thanks for helping.

, Hello and thanks for posting on the HP support forums. If you can please post back with the full Model and Product Number of your notebook. Here is a link to help you with this. HP Notebook PCs - How Do I Find My Model Number or Product Number? Until then try doing a hard reset on the notebook and see if it will clear up the issue.

Satellite L655 Stuck in Startup Repair mode

My laptop is stuck in Startup Repair mode. A blue bar has been crossing the screen for over 24-hours with a dialogue that says, "Repairing disk errors. This might take over an hour to complete." If I try to cancel, I get a pop-up message that says, "The current repair operation cannot be cancelled." Shutting down using the buttom and restarting takes me back to the same screen. Shutting down, and using F-8 takes me to the same screen. Does anyone have a suggestion as to how to escapte from this "loop"?

Which Satellite L655? There is a label on the bottom.

Windows 8 failure to load after restart - stuck on automatic repair or Lenovo screen

I have a 1 week old Lenovo G580
Intel Core i3 3110M(2.40GHz) 15.6" 4GB Memory DDR3 1600 500GB HDD 5400rpm DVD±R/RW Intel HD Graphics 4000
Came with Windows 8 x64 ent
Had previously been working beautifully.
I closed the lid to put it to sleep and when I opened it back up the sound driver was not working.
So I restarted Windows.
Ever since that restart, I can not get windows to load.
It either gets stuck on the black Lenovo screen or goes into the Automatic Repair mode, tries diagnosing my PC. Some of the times the error feedback it has given me is to search online for CRITICAL_PROCESS_DIED.....but none of what I have found helps.
The automatic repair eventually prompts me to do a system restore. However, when I click 'Restore' it then goes to the Black Lenovo screen for about an hour. I haven't had the patience to let it sit like that for more than an hour, and IMO with ZERO feedback on the restore process I guess that means there was some restore failure.
I was finally able to get into the Lenovo Setup Utility (pressing F2 IMMEDIATELY on powerup) but so far none of the boot option changes have helped.
Is there any other way to do a 'hard restore' while saving my data? Is there a way to update the BIOS or registry options from the setup utility? I'm feeling extremely limiting because the setup utility is the only alternative screen I can reach.
Anything helps,
Thanks.

SO it finally restored.
I guess the system restore with windows 8/lenovo just takes several hours and gives no feedback during the process. Just the black screen with lenovo. So I left that on for 3+ hours and it restored to a previous date. yay!

Bsod after bios update 1.4 - 1.5 + Windows automatic repair loops

After i updated my bios with liveupdate5 my computer started acting up with endless automatic repairs for w8.1 and random bsods for w7. Changing bios settings and restoring defaults does not solve the issue :-/
Is it possible to revert back to the 1.4 somehow?

Quote from: RemusM on 07-March-14, 21:50:06
v1.5 was released 3 months ago.
http://www.msi.com/product/mb/H87MG43.html#/?div=BIOS
Did you clear the CMOS (and reload the default settings) after the BIOS update?
hm true, weird how they just now was displayed in the live update. No, I havent done any type of manual cmos clearing, but it would seem that the live update takes care of that as far as the instructions goes.
Patching back to 1.4 without any light in the tunnel. The computer still does no longer boot futher than the windowslogo before bsod. Reinstalling windows does not help :-/

Windows 8.1 update attempt bricked the machine in bootloop and now automatic repair loop

Hi, I attempted the windows 8.1 update w. failure.
=============1st part============
the machine is stuck in bootloop initially, searched the forum and tried several things like the "recovery" options and making a install USB drive to do repairs. Nothing worked.
Even use the bcdedit commands and other /fixmbr stuff.
I have a Dell Inspiron 14z w. Intel Storage Technology. So I even went into the BIOS to disable it to use Legacy stuff w. disable Intel Storage Techology.
Any common sense workable help would be appreciated.
=============2nd part============
I was able to get into the System Restore option, selected a restore point but failure again when the C: drive selection stated "You must enable system protection on this drive" and can't proceed.

Hi,
About this problem, it seems like there is not any method can fix it, Windows encounter problem during Windows upgrade first boot, Windows 8.1 already installed but new system configuration failed. This is problem why you use install USB drive to repair
but failed.
In my opinion, it's hard to fix it, the worst result is you may need to reinstall you system. While here is some methods you still can have a try.
1. Boot into System repair mode as you said. find Command Prompt option.
2. Open Command Prompt mode, type Bootrec.exe and press
Enter.
3. Try to use the command below to fix system.
bootrec /FixBoot
bootrec /ScanOs
bootrec /RebuildBcd

Hp Envy stuck in preparing automatic repair screen won't boot up

My Hp Envy TS m6 Sleekbook is stuck on the preparing automatic repair page..I've tried restoring it using the f11 key but then it goes to another black page with the Hp logo on it and it says please wait and again remains stuck..I've already backed up all my information so I don't mind restoring it back to factory settings but it just won't let me do much of anything!! Please help!!

@Kmarcast18 ,
Hello and welcome to the HP support forums. From what you are stating you system sounds like it is stuck in a repair loop and just cant proceed.
You mentioned tapping F11 to get into the menu and on most system that will work.
Here is a link for the service manual. The reset for this system is listed on page 80.
One thing you can try as well is to remove the battery. The process is on page 32.
With the battery out and the power cord removed. Hold the power button down for 30 seconds.
Put the power cord back in and boot up holding the F11 key again to see if you can get into the restore options. If this works great. Shut the system down again and install the battery.
At this point if that fails you will want to contact phone support for repair options.
