Aurora R7 boot loop issue

The computer was running fine in the morning, but run into the boot loop after some system updates. The computer will reboot every 2 seconds, and I can only see the Alienware sign on screen before it reboot itself. The reboot cycle is endless. I have tried to unplugged the power and press power button for 40 seconds, but it does not work. Does anyone know what might be the issue? Thanks.

you posted with no OS stated nor all things inside PC,  what options are inside even video cards.

the 3 fails stated below is w10 auto self repair mode, x3 fails.

The PC can be repaired in any shop, PC are not rare or not known.

The top cause is bad OS here,  the PC boots, BIOS then POSTS errors or not then if no errors.

the BIOS load the first device, in the boot order page, BIOS) if HDD0 is it then that failing.

why is complex, but bad hDD is one, do HDD test first.

a tech know this fact, if the HDD is bad, you can install say w10 fresh 10000 times and it will fail.

so we test the HDD First, or look silly doing the impossible all day long (techs not you)

learn that your PC can boot to DVD and USB sticks, learn that we do that too, we boot to Linux USB stick

we see omg linux works ok. if yes, then your HDD is bad, (or corrupted )

learn next that a HDD that  fails SMART tests will self corrupt to the end of time.

there are lots of tests. one can even move the old HDD to 2nd PC as a 2nd drive. and test the snarf out of it.

we run smart tests first.

ok>?

NO OS stated or even hinted, why post lacking 1/2 what you own>?

1: HW

2: SW,

 

1/2 told, or even less lacking what is inside your PC.

 

all HDD fail, most do in 5 to 10 year span, 99% pure, truth.(laptops are the worse)

In fact they are all  bad even new in the factory plant, before self repair is run..... HDD 101 facts.

then 10 years later the spare clusters run dry and back to BAD it goes , for ever.

we test them first,  fully. or all next step will and can fail. hard. die hard,

I'd run smart tests then reload the OS from scratch fresh , even upgrade the OS,  is better. w10 v1903.

Maybe a bad windows update.

I Googled some stuff. I always get to safemode from within Windows then reboot but if you can't get to Windows login. This video says after 3 mid reboots the 4th will take you to the recovery screen. Maybe give this a shot.

Aurora R7 would come with windows 10 so no OS would need to be listed.

R7 WILL NOT WORK EVER with earlier versions of windows like 7 or 8 .

You will have to clean install onto a working drive.

Corruption due to physically bad drive is possible.

Reinstall with OEM System builder DVD is recommended.
