Windows 8.1 crash

Hi all,

I bought new dell dell inspiron 5537 R 15 with windows 8, unfortunately today I saw an add of windows 8.1 in the windows app store and and downloaded it. The problem now when I open my laptop it boots the windows and then only a black screen appears with some flashes of the mouse pointer, I cant access to the computer unless using the safe mode option. The problem because it is new I didnt make a back up disk and I tries from the safe mode but the windows didnt allow me. Is there any way to restore my computer to factory settings or at least to get it work.

Sorry for bothering you and thank you in advance,

Hi omar najim,

I am sorry for the inconvenience. I request you to run diagnostics on the hardware components of the system. Press Fn key + power button to launch diagnostics. Refer to the following link as well:

Please reply to this post, in case any error message. In case the diagnostics passes, perform clean boot in safe mode. Click on the link for instruction to clean boot.
