My Acer Predator G3620 from 2013 (upgraded from Windows 8 to Windows 10) suddenly, from early April, will start no more. As soon as the Acer logo shows on the screen, the PC stalls – and not even one single beep signal can be heard. Now I can neither access BIOS nor the Windows Boot Manager – no text at all at the bottom of the screen.
I need to attach a USB installation disk, start again and then (most often) I can change the boot order in BIOS to boot from there. After that and luckily just after1 short beep signal it works.
I suspect troubles with my Windows Boot Manager. Following many descriptions, I have tried correcting it and then I updated my Windows 10 from an USB installation key – nothing with success. Unfortunately, in this version and build of Windows 10, I am not allowed to alter all the boot elements.
I do not see any another error messages and I cannot really interpret the content of the system’s log. Could it be HW errors, CMOS battery etc.? How can I check for the location and cause of the error?
