Thanks for watching! Please consider subscribing to my new channel here: www.youtube.com/@jamminpcs. I'm trying to move the easier hardware stuff there so that I can focus on the more in depth troubleshooting and diagnostic videos here :)
Flushing the battery helped for me. This video made me confident enough to break my guarantee and it was the first time I operated on a laptop. Now it works again. Thank you so much, sir! :)
Bro you just saved me some time and effort. Opened up the laptop and there it was, the hard drive connection was loose. Re-seated it and laptop works fine. Thank you brother :-)
Thank you so much!! I should’ve skipped to the boot screen instead of trying to opening up my laptop. It was fun tho! Everything was tight! All I needed was to change to legacy! 🎉
I switched it from UEFI to Legacy, got stuck on a different screen. Tried going to recovery options, that didn't work either. The last thing in bios I would've tried if I didn't get stuck on a different screen. Can you help me out?
@@PC_Monkey I think it may have overheated because my MSI laptop can get pretty hot, but I turned it off for a couple hours, and went to turn it back on and then I got stuck on the bios screen.
Many thanks. Worked on my MSI GL62M, I was stuck on a boot loop. Swapping to legacy and back and booting from hhd worked. I was getting worried I'd have to retired it
@@verdecao8365 If your UEFI to Legacy is not able to be changed, or if changing it does not help, can you proceed with the video and try the rest of the steps?
@@PC_MonkeyHello and thanks for reply. My laptop battery was at 12% and died when i tried to turn on laptop. That's what i believe caused all this mess. It doesn't even give me the option to change to Legacy. Option is greyed out. About recovery F3 key... it simply doesn't work. I press it and nothing happens. The menu doesn't open, all that opens is BIOS as always, and always with correct time and date. I'll try the first method you showed but at this point i don't think that's the problem. Laptop was working perfectly fine for 3h while i used it. Then i turn it off and back on to make sure i saved my document but it died during startup...
@@verdecao8365 1. Are you able to try the rest of the function keys as yours may be different than F3. 2. So before this issue, you tried to turn the computer on but the battery died during startup so the computer turned off during startup?
I have a problem that seems to be unique to me, since I haven’t found anything online about it and posting on subreddits hasn’t helped either. I have an MSI Alpha 17 that kept looping back to the click BIOS menu, and after selecting the option to restore default BIOS settings a few times and exiting out, it’s now stuck on the logo screen whenever it tries to boot up. I’ve left it for roughly 8 hours trying to boot up like this and it makes no discernible progress. I can’t access BIOS menus anymore, no matter which key or combination of keys I have attempted to use, and I can’t access windows recovery. Beyond that, I’ve tried taking it apart and flushing the battery, I’ve tried the standard EC reset process according to instructions from a link I received to an MSI site, and nothing has made any noticeable change. I don’t have money to take it to a shop and have it looked at, and the only thing I haven’t tried is uninstalling and reinstalling all the hardware. I don’t know if you’ll see this or respond to it, or if anyone else will for that matter, but I’d appreciate any help I can get.
@@ifardedarghhh it would have, but my motherboard stopped recognizing my SSD so I had to buy a new one. If you’re having the same problem, make sure when you download the windows media creation tool to double click the file while it’s in your thumb drive folder and run it as a program. This will let it create the actual windows files and put them on the thumb drive. It can take around 40 minutes. If this doesn’t work for you you’ll have to buy a new ssd and install windows on it.
@@Wakaraneeyo is it alright if I asked how you did this? can’t believe there’s another person experiencing the same thing as me + I have no experience in computers whatsoever so please help me out 😭😭🙏🏽🙏🏽
its worked broooo, my laptop msi gf 63 thin 9rcx, i only change boot to Legacy, its says like need boot with usb/cd like dont know, so i change it back to UEFI mode then its WORKED, THANKYOUU.🎉🎉
Thankyou sooo much for this video ❤❤❤❤ I was so stressed it was broken and I thought I lost everything DAM. Windows update bootloop learnt my lesson off to get a terrabite external hardrive!!!
Definitely gonna try. I have an msi g63 that turns itself of after running for 10 mins them is stuck in a bootloop. Based on the comments, and the clearness of you explanation, and the expertise you display, you did some quality work here. Hopefully it will suit my case! (I lost half of the screws also, I should but a bunch)
Update: my issue was partly solved following the steps, but my PC still sometimes shutsdown when I slightly touches it (gaming with the mouse is fine). There is clearly something going on with the hardware. When this accident happens, it enters the said bootloop again. I did this operation a few times. Also, I did it with laptop plugged on alimentation. I wonder if there is anything I can do further, to at least identify where the weak component is, and maybe replace it back or something ?
Boot mode select cannot be changed, only uefi, evon though i load defaults, nothing works, even if i change the boot priority where hardrive is first, nothing works. even on that advanced option things, i tried, nothing works. i don't know why. my only suspicion is on updates but after i uninstalled updates, it still didn't work at first, then after a day or two, it opened. i just don't update
If you cannot change the settings in BIOS, or if changing them does not help, continue on with the rest of the video. What was the result of the diagnostic scan?
What do you mean, battery drain issue? Is your computer starting and working well other than the battery draining too quickly? Also, did anything happen before this issue appeared? Liquid spill, overheating, Windows update, etc?
Hello, over tried the option to change from Legacy to UEFI and I then pressed save and exit… the screen then changed to say checking for media presence! Then back to the screen with the date and time all over again. Do you by any chance know what this could mean?
If you cannot change the settings in BIOS, or if changing them does not help, continue on with the rest of the video. What was the result of the diagnostic scan?
@PC_Monkey I took out the battery then placed it back.. basically I did what you did and the results are the same I'm assuming I would have to reset everything but I don't know how without going through the recovery loop
hello ! I got some problems with my laptop, I can’t enter the table so I want to reboot my laptop can you please make a video how to reboot Laptop MSI KATANA 15 B13V.
Whats a table? You want to boot? What is happening now when you try turning the computer on? What can you see on the screen? Also, did anything happen before this issue appeared? Liquid spill, overheating, Windows update, etc?
i’ve tried these things my computer(desktop) worked to start the day then i tried turning it on a few hours later then my computer didn’t load my second monitor but booted and i was able to sign in then i tried to restart it thinking maybe it didn’t boot right and it did the same thing then it gave me a loading screen the second time and the loading screen is frozen when i turn it on it shows msi then freezes then the loading bar freezes
Sounds like your on the correct video. Have you tried the steps seen here? Also, did anything happen before this issue appeared? Overheating, liquid spill, Windows update, etc?
I’ve went into my laptop (MSI Bravo 15 c7ve) and I found the screw keeping my ssd in place was off it, so I found it and put it back in plugged the battery back in and thought I was done but when I turned it on, it’s still on this click bios screen, I have tried everything. My ssd isn’t dead it’s still being detected in the storage information so I cannot tell what’s going on, I’ve tried getting into troubleshoot but it just doesn’t let me, it just keeps me in BIOS. Any ideas?
@@PC_Monkey I was playing a game, it froze up and after a bit I just powered it off and tried powering it back on so now im in this bios loop, and no I can not get to the troubleshoot part it has me stuck in bios
I have a question, If MSI Laptop GL63 Keep Restarting over and over again after a sleep what could possibly the problem ? Everytime the laptop put to sleep while it plug-off (not being charge) and Chrome is on, the next time i started it, it will suddenly shut down and keep restarting over and over again. I always fix it by dismantling all the component and push the CMOS Reset Button (dat exist in MSI gl63 Mainboard). But every time i make it sleep with chromes on (and plug-off), the problem occurs again.... I can fix it again, but well...... im just curious what the problem is........ i put my sus in the CMOS battery, but wasn't too sure about it........
What are you able to see on the screen during this resetting process? Also, if you can enter BIOS, is the date/time correct? Can you also reset BIOS from the options during startup?
@@PC_Monkey what i able to see At first startup was the MSI Logo for a sec, then it suddenly shut down. But the 2nd time i turn it on, it immediately shutdown even before it shows the MSI logo, it keep doing that over and over. Bcuz of that i can't realy enter or reset the BIOS. But.... It will return to Normal again, after i disassemble the parts like, battery, Cooling system, RAM, Wifi Chip and began to push the little black button (CMOS/BIOS reset Button) for 30 sec. Then ..... Theproblems keeps coming back if i make my laptop Sleep for more than 4 hour with chrome On 😂. Is the problem lies in CMOS battery ? Btw my laptop battery and charger work perfectly normal so far, but the rest is im not so sure...

Ive been sitting here for 4 and a half hours and I've tried everything I can at a software level. All i have left is taking the laptop apart, but the top right screw on my MSI bravo 15 c7v doesn't unscrew because it's a completely different screw type so none of my screws work on it. Might give up, but i don't want to because i got this laptop only 2-3 months ago
What are you able to see on the screen when trying to turn the computer on? Also, are you able to enter BIOS and try the steps seen here? Switching the Legacy setting, any Restore / Repair options?

Hi, I just only replace a new motherboard, and now it got into a blue screen and then I'm stuck in the BIOS screen. F3 & F11 can't get me into trouble shooting page. Is there anything I can do.

Msi alpha15 a3dd struck at msi logo Tried pressing the bios and windows f3 buttons nothing happens From a few days my hdd was disappearing from system and then reappeared after restarting but last night it disappeared completely from the system as a whole. Checked disk management only showing c drive which is ssd. And now the laptop doesn't even get past the msi logo screen. I'm hopeless man... Thinking about removing the hdd and replacing the ssd with a new one bigger one cuz it's only 256 gb. Any idea wht should I do?
Have you tried reseating the HDD? Glad your all set :) Also, did anything happen before this issue appeared? Liquid spill, overheating, Windows update, etc?
@@PC_Monkeyno haven't tried that yet but I suppose it's really an issue with the hdd Nothing major has happened before this incident. I guess the hdd is dead
Jamin, love your videos. I was using a Toshiba satellite laptop when a blue screen appeared and said something about locking the computer. Screen went off and a check disk screen came on, said press any key to stop check disk. I let it scan for errors and after a few minutes it shut down. Can't restart it. Tried removing the battery, pressing the power button for a minute reinserting the battery, etc. etc. When I press the power button it will flash 2 or 3 times and stay on, but no fan or any other sound. If I try a hard reset, no sound whatsoever. Any ideas? The blinking light around the power button is the only sign of life. ???

bro. it's working now. but i have some other issue. the laptop is brand new, several days ago. but i found burnt mark at the frame of mobo. would it harm the mobo or the laptop in the future?
If your computer is new but shows a burn mark near the motherboard, I would return it. Yes, that can affect the computer later and the issue that caused that burned mark can, and most likley will, get worse over time.
your vidos are great. im still unable to get passed the bios screen i did the video step by step not sure what is going on i hit F3 and it will not take me to the window screen

@@kyoshin4877 You can see how to install Win10 here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-mplogxgClgk.html. The key would be different for your MSI though.
If the computer displays to an external monitor but will not display to its own screen, your most likely looking at a problem with your LCD or your LCD Cable. I would first try reseating the cable at both ends to make sure its not just loose. If that is not the issue, I would then replace the LCD and LCD Cable one at a time till I find the issue. Let me know if you would like help with any of that:)
@PC_Monkey thanks for the prompt response! I will definitely try that out tomorrow and see if it fix or locate the issue! Do you have a video on your channel where you remove the cables? Watched yours and was able to unplug my battery without messing up the wires lol

Hello my friend. I've tried to change from UEFI to Legacy but the option is greyed out. I changed secure boot from enabled to disabled but that didn't help me. I still can't change to legacy. I changed the time and date and since that change, everytime i restart laptop it is always correct, so cmos battery is good apparently. Do you know what could be wrong? Thank you. Also, i can't open recovery with F3 key. It goes straight to BIOS. PS: the computer started going to BIOS everytime i turn it on since i ran out of battery during the laptop startup. Before that i was working on it for like 3h and everything was fine...laptop model is MS-1581

The problem I am dealing with is my laptop is stuck on logo on startup.

The one i had most hope for was the f3 solution but when i do it all it shows is a black screen.
In that case, the next DIY steps would be more invasive. But since your still under warranty, I would have to suguest you contact them. Usually attempting DIY isnt worth losing the warranty :(
