Windows doesn't boot up

Anonymous

Windows 10 not booting up. Tried using the recovery USB and the CMD instructions available online. None of them work. I don't have a system restore point either. In the CMD, all my partitions are shown as RAW. Chkdsk commands don't work and DISKPART Clean gives an I/O device error. Not able to convert RAW to NTFS too. Tried using EaseUS Partition Master using USB but the whole Disk 0 shows unallocated and I'm not able to format or apply any commands on it. Is there any way to get my system back to normal? It'll be great if I can recover my data but that's not a priority.

Thanks in Advance

    Try resetting your BIOS defaults:

    If that does not work and you have a desktop computer...

    Power down

    Unplug it

    Open the system unit

    Remove the CMOS CR-2032 chip

    Plug it in, start the machine, wait 10 seconds

    Power down, unplug it, reinstall the CMOS CR-2032 chip

    Plug it in again, power up

    If that does not work, download Ubuntu Linux, make a bootable copy, boot from it and erase the drive.

    Try doing the following:

    • Disable Secure Boot in the BIOS
    • Enable Legacy BIOS
    • When booting up, press F7 on your keyboard to select Disable driver signature enforcement. Your computer will now restart automatically.

    Thank You but I've tried those too. Windows doesn't get installed and I cannot delete the partition either.
