Recently, my Samsung Galaxy Pro 360 underwent a significant software update. Following this update, my PC experienced a problematic boot sequence. Upon restarting, Windows would only partially load, displaying a limited taskbar and failing to proceed further. Despite the mouse functionality, the system would ultimately freeze, requiring a forced shutdown. This frustrating cycle persisted, with intermittent instances of Windows failing to load entirely and displaying the dreaded blue screen error message.

Before this update, my PC operated without any complications. To address the boot problem, I ran troubleshooting commands such as DISM and SFC /scannow, but to no avail. Seeking assistance from Samsung Support, I inquired about re-flashing the BIOS, only to be informed that it was not possible. This contrasted with my past experiences with Asus products, where I had successfully performed BIOS flashings independently. The support team’s proposed solution was to either reinstall Windows or consider purchasing a new laptop at a discounted rate.

In response to this conundrum, I have opted to acquire a new drive and will attempt to resolve the boot issue by implementing this hardware change. The underlying cause of this perplexing boot problem remains elusive, prompting further investigation into potential factors contributing to this ordeal.
