Stuck in an Installation Loop, help required

ey everyone, I've got myself into a pickle here...

So I got that Dell black screen bug where the screen goes black after startup supposedly because of Nvdia/Intel graphics cards.

Tried a couple of solutions and nothing worked so I booted into the troubleshoot screen and figured a fresh install would do the job and this time I wouldn't update BIOS (that's what led to all of this).

Anyways, the black screen froze the installation process and now everytime I restart the laptop it attempts to resume with the "Press OK to restart the laptop and resume Windows installation". Essentially stuck in a bootloop with no idea what the *** to do, I literally opened this laptop today.

Anyone have any kind of solution here?

animal39,

You may want to downgrade the bios and then do a Clean Install of Windows.

You can try the information below to see if that will work as well.

Use Bootrec.exe in the Windows RE to troubleshoot startup issues
