Here is a Tom's hardware thread that suggests BIOS must be reset to AHCI. &nbsp;I have not seen that particular error before. <br />

If you are able at least start, then use the Microsoft Windows 10 recovery link, NOT a 3rd party link as suggested above. Why? &nbsp;Microsoft keeps Windows 10 licensing in their store and the link below knows that. <br />

All I have to access the Internet is my iPad. &nbsp;My laptop is offline. Any suggestions?
</div>


<div>
You will need another client for all solutions. Can you ask a friend?

To follow Leonie's Suggestion, you'd need to create a windows setup USB drive or DVD, first. So if your IPad doesn't have a USB port, you'd have to burn a setup DVD from the setup ISO, that you'll need to download from some place. It would be better if you already had a windows setup DVD - do you?
</div>


<div>
Use a Microsoft link as provided earlier, because if you can burn the Windows 10 ISO to a DVD and start it, Microsoft will recognize the license immediately.
</div>


<div>
Also, when you get to the point you can start the computer in some way, check the hard drive for errors as that could have caused the issue.

Since you cannot access another Windows machine, try As Mr. Hurst suggest to reset BIOS/UEFI &nbsp;to AHCI. <br />
To access the BIOS/UEFI , press F2 while turning Dell machine ON. After one inside BIOS/UEFI press F9 to set BIOS default. Then check in Advanced Tab check that SATA Operation is set to AHCI. <br />
One may press F10 to save and restart your system.<br />
<br />
Now check if Windows boots normally. If not try to set SATA Operation in BIOS/UEFI to ATA then save and restart your machine.

That did not work. I am still getting the blue screen. &nbsp;I will take it to the shop tomorrow and have a tech try a recovery disk. &nbsp;I have read that the new update may or may not not be compatible with my hard drive. &nbsp;I wil see what the tech finds.<br />
<br />
Thanks<br />

<div>
See what your shop says. If the computer was Windows 10 compliant, then the drive should be OK with the newest updates. All my drives are fine in this regard.

<div>
Hi GPSPOW.<br />
if you get multiple suggestions and write &quot;That did not work&quot; - which did you try? all? Leonie's sounded pretty well-suited, how did it go, what happened when you tried it, did startup repair run, did it say there are problems, did it say those were non-fixable? This detailed feedback is required.
</div>


<div>
Just got back from the lap top tech. &nbsp;Does not look good. &nbsp;He is trying to recover the data on the hard disk and says there is nothing there. &nbsp;I am waiting for an outcome on a deep dive to recover my data. &nbsp;I do not know why the Microsoft update would cause this but in the future I will not allow auto updates.<br />
<br />
Thanks everyone
</div>


<div>
Microsoft Update do not break hard drives (at least not compliant hard drives and computers). There may be some other reason causing the issue.
</div>


<div>
Was not the best outcome for me.

Windows 10 update crashes dell laptop

Servers are computing devices that are similar to desktop computers in that they have the same basic components, but are significantly different in size, configuration and purpose. Servers are usually accessed over a network, and many run unattended, without a computer monitor, input device, audio hardware or USB interfaces. Many servers do not have a graphical user interface (GUI), and are configured and managed remotely. Servers typically include hardware redundancy such as dual power supplies, RAID disk systems, and ECC memory, along with extensive pre-boot memory testing and verification. Critical components might be hot swappable, and to guard against overheating, servers might have more powerful fans or use water cooling.

A laptop or notebook is a portable personal computer with a clamshell form factor, suitable for mobile use. Although originally there was a distinction between laptops and notebooks, the former being bigger and heavier than the latter, there is often no longer any difference. Laptops are commonly used in a variety of settings, such as at work, in education, and for personal multimedia. A laptop combines the components, inputs, outputs and capabilities of a desktop computer, including the display screen, speakers, a keyboard, and pointing devices (such as a touchpad or trackpad) into a single unit. The device can be powered either from a rechargeable battery or by mains electricity from an AC adapter.

Windows 10 is a personal computer operating system featuring the "universal application architecture" (UAP); apps can be designed to run across multiple devices with nearly identical code, including PCs, tablets, smartphones, embedded systems, Xbox One, Surface Hub and HoloLens. Windows 10 also includes a virtual desktop system, a window and desktop management feature called Task View, the Microsoft Edge web browser, support for fingerprint and face recognition login, voice-based search (Cortana), new security features for enterprise environments, and DirectX 12 and WDDM 2.0 to improve the operating system's graphics capabilities for games.
