Q: I have tried all the steps seen here and the issue has not been resolved.
A: If the diagnostic test showed your Hard Drive to be healthy, or if you were unable to run the diagnostic test, your next step would be to try an install Windows.

You can create your own install media for free as seen in those videos or you can purchase it. You can see examples of the correct items here in the Repair Tools list: www.amazon.com/shop/pcmonkey
If Windows installs, then you know the issue was the Operating System. If it does not install, you may be looking at a bad HDD. It would then need to be replaced.
Q: The diagnostic test showd an error with my HDD. What do I do?
A: If your HDD shows an error, try reseating the HDD as seen here in this video. If fails to help and your HDD still shows an error, its most likely bad and needs to be replaced. If you would like help locating a compatible HDD, let me know or check here for some options: www.amazon.com/shop/pcmonkey/...
Q: I couldn't change my BIOS settings or I did change them and it didn't help.
A: If you could not change your BIOS settings or if changing them did not help your situation, them move on and try the other steps in this video. What was the result of the Lenovo diagnostic scan?

I have a Lenovo T420. Dropped on my desk. Getting 2100 HDDO error and Media Cable Failure. Will NOT go into BIOS. Have tried everything, just goes to black screen. I have taken hard drive out and put it back in several times. Any thoughts? How would I find the cable?

@PC_Monkey Жыл бұрын

First step would be to reseat the HDD. Sounds like you have with no luck. If there are any HDD Cables or other smaller boards that the HDD connects to before the motherboard, reseat those as well. If still no luck, your most likely looking at a HDD issue or Motherboard issue. Replace the HDD first and install an operating system to the new one. You can get help with that with other video links in the description of this video. If that fails to help, your may need to replace the damaged motherboard at that point :(

I have a hard drive with GPT and Windows installed on the HDD on a partition formatted as NTFS.

So after a windows update, I started boot looping on my old x1 carbon. Tried changing boot mode in bios. Time is right. I cannot boot to USB to install a new os. I tried factory resetting bios. Nothing. Should I try flashing the bios? I'm hesitant to go that option cause I can only mount the iso to a CD as it's not showing as bootable media in Rufus. Or is it a motherboard issue. Only thing I haven't tried is the cmos battery as I don't want to tear the laptop apart.

Hi Pc Monkey, I was stuck on boot loop on my Legion 5 Pro, the bios doesn’t have any change in Boot settings even if i disable safe setup mode, also the diagnostic setep provided by the company only gives option to choose bios settings or boot menu- which has windows and some Network boot option. Nothing was working since I couldn’t even reach automatic repairs before it crashes on booting screen and restarts. By some miracle my windows has booted now and is working fine but I’m scared of even shutting down my pc since this process wasted 2hrs of mine. What should i do now to fix this soo as it doesn’t happen again?? Since my windows is loaded and everything working fine i dont think it’s a hardware issue rather maybe my windows is corrupted?

First, make sure that the fan and vents are clean and clear. If you need help accessing the fan, let me know what brand and model computer you have and I can help you get inside it. If that does not fix the overheating issue, then try replacing the thermal paste on the CPU and if needed, the GPU as seen here; kzfaq.info/get/bejne/gcWaZ6qBz9bFp58.html.

Honestly ridiculous but apparently a new thing lenavo is doing with ideapads. I did the diagnostic and now have been trying to create a recovery USB drive. You have to have 32gb usb drive, the serial number found in bios and lenavo login to create a recovery drive that expires in 3 days. It's a massive process. I'll come back and let you know if it works lol. Everything passed in the diagnostic scan so this is my next option. Also no spills or anything was using it last night, got up to boot screen.

Hello, would this problem be because of water damage? I recently spilled water on my laptop and it showed me this screen. I press enter and it shows me the boot devices that I can choose but it does not show anything. I have an ideapad 5 pro. Can you please help? Edit: I found the little button that I had to press with a needle on the side and it displays this screen which has information, configuration, security, boot, and exit. I'm trying to see the problem and try to fix it but I don't know what to do. Can you help?

@PC_Monkey Thanks for your video. Unfortunately, I've tried all the options and my lenovo t570 won't boot... anything. After an automatic windows 10 update ran itself through a couple of bluescreens, the thing wont boot (once the OS starts loading, it just keeps saying "Windows could not complete the installation..."), so i went ahead and downloaded Ubuntu on a USB and tried to boot the installation. But that didn't work either! Tried a different linux installation, tried different usb ports, nothing. If you've any ideas or tips, would be greatly appreciated!

Hi! I have a Lenovo Ideapad3. When I turn it on i can see the logo but after that the screen is black. I used the reset bottom but when I get to the boot option I don’t have “boot mode”. I spilled some liquid by accident bc I was cleaning my phone with a spray 🙈 close to the computer maybe that was enough to kill my computer 🥺

@PC_Monkey Жыл бұрын

1. Were you able to access the diagnostic test as seen here? If so, what was the result? 2. After a liquid spill, you want to first make sure the computer is 100% dry. You would turn your computer off immediately by pressing and holding the power button until the computer turns off. Then you would disassemble the computer as much as your comfortable with, at least trying to remove the bottom case. Then you would turn it on its side and let dry for a couple days. Have you done this yet or are you sure the computer is dry?

I have a Lenovo x1 carbon that is booting. The windows logo appears and as soon as it stops loading, my screen turns black. Upon connecting my laptop to a screen (tv or monitor) it boots properly and i'm able to navigate and use the computer no problem. I can get the screen to work on its own at times by hard reseting it (holding power button for 20sec or closing the lid and opening it again a bunch of times). It is not a problem if i keep the laptop powered up and connected to an outlet 100% of the time. it becomes a problem when the laptop goes iddle for a long period of time or when the battery runs out. I'm using windows 10 and all my updates and drivers are up to date. I have played with the BIOS setting nothing outside the norm. I'm suspecting a software issue... I attempted a fresh install of windows 10 twice and windows 11 twice. Same problem... HELP
