The following happened today:

I was gaming a bit and was watching some YouTube, then out of all the sudden my pc restarts.
It went into the "preparing automatic repair" screen and it stays there, doesn't continue or does anything at all.
Trying to boot from USB doesn't work either, cause it just stays on the blue windows logo.

Does someone know this issue and what was the fix for this?

Go to a working machine and create a bootable flash stick of memtest.
Verify it boots on the working machine.
Put the flash stick in the busted machine and see if it will boot.
If it does let it run for a few hours......no errors allowed.

I don't think memtest gives you a windows logo.
Ive ran the memtest yesterday night and there didnt seem anything wrong.
No errors whatsoever

Edit: ok, so i just did a cmos clear and it went into windows login screen.
restarted the pc and i was back again in this loop.
still unsure what the problem is.

Go to a working machine and make sure the windows flash stick works.
List the parts that are in the problem machine.

WHen plugging in the flash drive where are you plugging it in? The motherboard USB or the Case USB? Make sure if youre trying to do a fresh install of windows that you are using a USB on the Motherboard instead of the CASE USB

Ive tried both and all other usb sockets thats on the motherboard, but none of them boots through.
It freezes on the windows logo, so neither am i able to troubleshoot or do a clean install of windows 10.
