I turn on my PC and it just has a windows loading screen for an hours, then screen just goes black.
I can't boot in safe mode or nothing. Nothing is working. Iv even left it sitting on for hours to see if anything would happen, nothing happened.
Iv unplugged everyone on my pc and replugged it in, to hopefully reset it, didn't help.
First time anything like this has happened, it only happened after I did a windows update...
I can't think of anything else that would make this happen.
Yes iv cleaned my pc, dust free. I have read some people have weird problems with their power supply... possible mine could be bad?
It is a few years old... but iv never had this problem before.
Are you able to boot into the bios?
If you have purchased the computer, what model is it? And do you know what motherboard is in it?

I wasn't able to boot into my bios until I removed my cmos to reset it.
Now I can get into it, but don't know what to do from here... lol.
My mb I have is a gigabyte z170-hd3

My suggestion would be to create a linux usb drive, copy all of your important files, then reinstall windows since windows update shouldn't affect bios like that.
Otherwise you can wait here for other answers, but I think it would be the best choice.

Well I don't have Linux and no way to get it since I don't have a pc...
Took a ram stick out and tried booting into safe mode to see it that was it...
didn't let me boot into safe mode.
Now a blue recovery screen has popped up saying windows didn't load correctly...

Well, cant really help you since something is corrupted, all I can say is create a linux usb and transfer files, then reinstall. You'd need another computer for that sooo yeah, kinda a dead-end.
Or you can wait for someone else to respond, maybe someone knows how to fix this.

Luckily enough, this was done with windows update, meaning all hardware is still good, its just the software that's messed up.
If you have windows installation disk, you can reinstall with that. If not, you need to get a USB drive and put the windows 10 installation ISO on it by using a tool such as UNetBootin.
You can get the windows 10 ISO's here: microsoft (dot) com/en-us/software-download/windows10ISO
Note: you will need another computer for this to work (you must copy the ISO to the USB somehow...)
Testing something
