    What is the error that appears on the screen?

    You can try pressing Fn+F8 on start up(doesn't always work) and then enter in safe mode from the recovery menu. Once in safe mode you can change the settings back to defult.
    Always post the following characterisitcs of the device:
    -Model number
    -Part number(not required, but helpful)
    -CPU
    -GPU
    -Operating system

    Helios 300 and Nitro 5 users DO NOT update the BIOS to version 1.22 if you don't want the keyboard's backlight to turn off after 30 seconds even when the device is plugged in.

    Hi @shah786

    I recommend you to try "System Restore". That should work.

    Hi @shah786

    Worried to know that issue persists. Could you please try tapping Alt + F10 on startup of your computer and let me know what happens.

    I have never seen the blue screen of death during startup but I have seen my AN515-53 becoming slow during startup but it was bearable. If you check in your task manager and see what programs you have enabled during startup, you can disable the ones that you don't need. You should be able to see significant improvement in boot up times after that.
