So Ive had and fixed this issue twice now. Usually I just have to reboot till I get the repair screen, let it run till it hangs, then repeat until it eventually boots.

What i need to know is what to do to stop this. I worry it might be hardware related but I don't know. Here's things i do know:

1. Different hdd with fresh install does the same thing.
2. Win 10 install/recovery tool does too. (Disc and usb)
3. It usually happens after updates.
4. I've reinstalled windows completely (formatted hdd). Still happens.
5. When the pc works it works perfectly fine. No other issues.
6. I clean the thing regularly. (Dust basically.
7. 64 bit gaming pc (2ish years old)

I'm worried it's a hardware issue? But i have no clue what it could be. I don't have piles of parts to swap out to troubleshoot. I need ideas.
