Question

Bios load default settings caused infinite boot

Sep 15, 2018 5:32PM PDT

After I load default settings in bios to solve the last problem(all USB input are unable to use and cursor missing), Windows 10 started to automatic repair my computer and I followed the steps given on Google(advanced settings→troubleshoot→advanced settings→startup repair). Since then, it keeps rebooting and always pop up automatic repair.
Whyyy? NEED SOLUTION PLS.

This is usually a back to the maker situation.

Time to take to this PC's maker why this is. Long ago we would start a new PC with the BIOS defaults and install Windows for the clients because we wanted to be sure the PC would work in that setup.

Your PC maker needs to explain why it fails.

AHCI ?

Don't know how old is your computer, but Default BIOS settings puts the HDD access in Compatible Mode. If the OS has been installed with the HDD in AHCI mode, boot will fail.
