I have just built a new gaming PC and everything works fine, windows installed correctly, all drives are recognized programs are installed etc.

But I have a small problem... When I shut down, power off and leave my PC for a while, upon startup, windows wont boot. It goes onto the motherboard screen and then says ''starting automatic repair''. It gives me a list of options, and the only option which gets me back to windows is to restore to a windows recovery backup which I created. Every time I shut down, I have to restore and then add a few programs that got removed which is very annoying.

The PC is stable and all my programs which are installed are working fine, but for some reason, it enters this recovery mode when I start up from a shutdown.

I am running windows 10 64bit, my motherboard is an Asus VII Hero and I have installed all the drivers which are needed along with a few programs. I am thinking I may need to do a re-installation of windows, would that fix the problem?

I am looking for an answer on how I could fix this problem and any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you.

Hi,

I would suggest doing a BIOS update first, if this will not solve the problem that's when you can reinstall Windows 10. There a lot of people how had this same problem which they ended up doing a complete re-install of Windows 10.

Here's how to create a Windows 10 USB using Media Creation Tools:
