So, a few months back, my sister accidentally dropped the laptop and for some reason, it wasn’t booting up anymore. When i tried to watch YouTube videos and try to do stuff in bios, like changing boot mode and stuff, it said “no recoverable boot device found” so I figured that I’ll have to install windows 10 again. I did that, created a usb installation media, and inserted it in my laptop. It’s been 3 hourse, and it’s just showing blank screen. When I put the usb stick in, it showed a windows logo and then it turned blank. I’ve been waiting for 3 hours and I’m getting kinda worried now. Any advice? My laptop has 1tb HDD, 4 GB RAM and Intel Pentium.

    Open up the laptop and make sure the cable is still attached to your hard drive. Unplug and then replug it to make sure the connection didn’t come unseated during the drop.

    Could be something as simple as that.
