Hello,
So windows isn't loading/starting, my computer is only booting to the BIOS. A few days ago I was watching a video while waiting for AVG Security to finish a deep scan when my PC froze. After a couple of seconds, I got the blue crash screen with the sad face and my PC rebooted. However, when it rebooted it went straight to the BIOS and since then it will only boot to the BIOS and won't boot up windows.
The BIOS doesn't show partition 1 of the hard drive hard drive I have windows installed on as a boot option and or in the boot override list. It does show partitions two and three of the OS drive.
Before the crash, I had three problems which I am not sure are related to this, but I figured I would mention them anyways in case they are linked or might help diagnose the problem.
I have only been using windows 10 since May when I updated from windows 7, and until now everything has been working fine. This is the first time it has crashed on me and windows not booting up so I really don't know what to do. I would appreciate any help.

- Task Manager would crash. Initially, it would close a few seconds after I opened it. The next day Task Manager would open, but when I pressed the option for more details (such as seeing Processes, Performance etc) it would instantly close.
- When scrolling through my programs list it would also close on me. Sometimes I would only get halfway through the list, and other times all the way to Z before my mouse cursor would turn into the blue loading circle and then the programs list would close.
- Notifications to scan my drive for errors from Windows, and then to restart my pc to fix drive errors once the scan was done. I did the scan and restarted. But two days later I got the message to scan reappear. So once more I did the scan and when I got the message to restart my pc to fix drive errors, I did so. But the next day, I got the scan message pop back up again.
