Asus x551c Wont boot into windows screen, Stuck in Bios screen.


Hi all I received a new Laptop i purchased online and Asus x551c and have been using it for just over two months now. All was fine up until Today when after shutting down my laptop after noticing a slow performance. I noticed that my laptop is now Stuck on the Bios screen menu, I have looked online and found a few solutions. All of which are not working for me. I have selected to restore default settings in the Bios menu but the laptop will still boot straight into Bios when turning it on. I also do not have the option to enable ''Launch csm'' which some solutions have suggested. But do have the option to enable or disable ''Fast boot'' only. If any one could help to rectify this issue it would be most appreciated. Kind Regards.

first try reseting the BIOS. see if it's gonna boot, after that try removing the HDD and plug it in another PC to test if it's ok.

Thank you for your response, I tried to reset the Bios in the Bios menu by selecting default settings. Not sure if that's what you meant as my computer knowledge is limited, But to no avail once i restarted the laptop i still was directed straight to the Bios menu. I'm now attempting to do the second suggestion you gave and will see if that will do anything. And will be sure to report back on any progress if any.

I have tried the methods suggested but none of these seem to be working, Im still getting the Bios menu on startup.

did the HDD pass all the test?

Thanks again for your response. But I've not attempted the two links above, as i'm not sure how i'm to run the applications from the laptop i'm having issues with. If i'm not able to exit the Bios screen much less to do anything, i'm currently using a second laptop.

well using HDD diagnostics is easy...make sure the HDD is plug in the 2nd pc then just download and install it then run it. that's it.

Ok i'm still not following & it must be my limited computer knowledge. But are you suggesting i use a cable of some sort to connect the two laptops. Or am i to actually just run the software on my working laptop. Thus this will tell me about my faulty one. You're going to have to explain a bit more in depth that i can understand, as i don't have any computer knowledge.

 

[qazzi]

ouch..since you have limited computer knowledge then this is not for you...it require's to remove the HDD then putting it to a PC or an external case then plugging it in the laptop. then running the software.

Right ok definitely not for me then as i may harm my laptop even more trying.

Update: So now i've managed to select ''Launch csm'' & ''Secure boot control: disable'' Following the steps given at the link below.

However now after exiting Bios i'm met with the following message on my screen.

"Reboot and Select proper Boot device or Insert Boot Media in selected Boot Device and press a key."

Does anyone now know how to fix this issue?

try re-installing windows.
