Asus Laptop Stuck on Diagnosing
by Guest LukeQuestion- 0 replies
- 152 views
I have a laptop that I haven't used in a year but I would like to retrieve the documents from it. It is an Asus laptop with windows 8. Every time I try to start it up it goes to a black screen with the Asus logo and says "Diagnosing your PC". This screen eventually turns into a blue screen with a sad face or a screen with other options. The other options include restarting with a disc, repairing through wifi, or running the test again. I don't have a disc and I'm lost as to the next step. Any help would be nice but my primary focus is retrieving documents from the hard drive. Continue reading...

Hi, My PC seems to be stuck in recovery mode and I can't seem to boot it. This is the error message I can't seem to do a hard shut down as well since the same blue screen appears right after the Lenovo logo disappears. I also have a CD that came with the computer. I'm not too sure if this is the required installation media but it doesn't do anything even after I put it inside my computer. This is the BIOS Setup Utility Would like to know if there's anything I can do to fix this, thank you in advance! Continue reading...
