A few days ago my lenovo laptop crashed (Bsod)and was not able to boot up. It was stuck on the lenovo logo screen. This has happened twice before but it never "Crashed" like this time. I was able to get it working by a certain post on quora. I have tried multiple solutions but Im still facing the same issue. Please help.

Solutions i have tried:

  1. Tried the quora post method (see link below)
  2. Tried startup Repair
  3. Tried system restore
  4. Booted windows from USB drive
  5. Did a clean install for windows
When i booted it form the usb drive it worked normally so i took a backup of my data and i thought that my OS had got corrupted and there for i did a clean install for windows. I updated windows and it was working fine up until this morning when i started getting the infinite boot time again..

Are there any more fixes that i can try?

Thanks.

Here is the qoura link that worked for me twice.

You state reinstalling the OS, did you recreate the bootable USB installer prior to reinstalling the OS? If so, what OS are you working with? Where did you source the installer for said OS?

FYI, if the method for shaking the laptop while upside down solved the issue then the issue might not be with the laptop itself, more like something that might be loose inside.

You didn't state the laptop you have but if it is a laptop that I think it is from Lenovo it was shipped from the start with a defective 2.5in HDD. You may need to have it replaced if you don't know how
Lenovo had a issue between 2012 to like 2018 shipping faulty Hitachi drives

Yes i created a bootable usb drive , im working with windows 10 and ive taken the iso from microsofts site and using rufus i created the bootable drive.

thats the strange part.. so whenever i experience heavy lag while using the laptop and i try to restart it, it goes into this infinite load state . and i dont think so something is loose inside because the shaking trick doesnt work everytime..
