Old PC: Manufacturer, model? How old is old?

When you can check the PC to get the motherboard make, model, version and the PSU: make, model, wattage (250 watts noted - verify to be sure).

Disk drive(s): make, model, capacity, how full?

Where did you get the BIOS update - source? What update procedure did you use?

Hi!

I read about your predicament and registered to this forum.

Go in to your BIOS and check to see what device the computer is booting from. It may be that the update defaulted to a different setting.
You can also check if it is set to allow legacy or UEFI devices. Being an older computer with a conventional SATA drive you may want to set it to legacy if it's set to UEFI.

Keep us posted. Good luck.

Update:
Windows just started working randomly After I left the PC alone in storage for awhile
Bios settings are the same from when I tried to Install windows 10 on it before.

Btw I use legacy for older operating systems

I used UEFI mode for windows 10

I've also tried legacy mode with it too and it works also
