[SOLVED] Pc only boots up with Windows Media Creation Tool

[JimmysMechanics]

Hi all,

The other day, my pc was running perfectly but I fell asleep while watching Netflix, when I woke up my pc was turned off. Then when I turned it back on it was stuck on the “Verifying PCI pool loop” (or whatever) boot loop. So then after a couple days and various solutions the windows 10 media creation tool finally worked. So the PC turns on and runs fine but only when the usb is plugged in as when I take it out, the boot loop persists. Any suggestions?

Thanks for reading,

Sounds like it’s time for a clean install

Thanks for the reply,
Was thinking of getting a new SSD. Is it possible to transfer my data from my current HDD to a new SSD?
Thanks

Yes you can clone the hard drive to the SSD using products like Macrium reflect
