Computer Fell On Floor Doesn T Boot

Whatever your issue here are some troubleshooting steps to take when your computer.

Computer fell on floor doesn t boot.

This is a particularly annoying way in which your computer won t turn on because you re trying to use windows built in ways to solve your problem but you re getting. To prevent data loss in case it should fail in the near future back up all important files immediately to an external device. For example if something overwrote your windows drive s boot sector this will repair the boot sector. My laptop was sitting on my dining room table when it fell off.

This should be done even if the computer doesn t show any obvious signs of damage. Maybe the computer doesn t turn on at all maybe it powers up but shuts right down or maybe it blue screens. Now when i try and turn on my computer it says that windows didn t start properly and i have the choice of either. It was working fine after the fall until i tried opening an mp3.

So my nephew decided to tip my computer tower over and being that it is fairly large and is on carpet it fell pretty hard. So i force shut down and after that windows wouldn t boot up. Be sure to check your bios or uefi s boot order first if the recovery environment won t load. I wasn t there at the time so i m not sure exactly how it fell or if i heard something.

If the recovery environment won t load or doesn t see your hard drive you likely have a hardware problem. During a fall especially if the drive was running at the time of impact it is quite possible that the drive sustained damage. In this situation no matter which safe mode option you choose your computer eventually stops freezes or restarts on its own after which you find yourself right back at the startup settings or advanced boot options menu.
