Hi guys, I performed a Factory Reset on my laptop the other day. After extensive wait times, it finally finished. This victory, however, was short lived. I made a new Microsoft account as I planned to use the laptop to host a TeamSpeak server for me and a couple of my friends, and I didn't want it to be associated with my personal Microsoft account, as I have a PC which I use regularly. Anyhow, when I started the laptop, I got about 10 minutes of use out of it, before I went to bed. I woke up in the morning, attempting to turn it on, but it no longer wants to run.
The laptop is only a couple of years old, to my knowledge, and has never had a problem like this before. It is able to start okay, but then it basically gives up halfway through the boot. The screen will display the 'HP' logo, and the fancy spinning circles, but after this is done, it will go blank (not off, but the screen goes black). Then, after waiting about 20 minutes, it comes up with a blue error message that's way too fast to read, before restarting.
Sometimes it might say 'Preparing System Restore' upon startup, but it does the same thing. I have even tried starting a System Recovery through F11, but it doesn't work, and instead restarts the laptop.
The laptop is a HP Pavilion G6, with 6GB RAM, 750GB (I think?) HDD, AMD A series A4-3305M / 1.9 GHz CPU w/ Windows 8.
If anyone can help me boot it back up, please let me know!
