Laptop Boot Issue

[^^vampire^^]

Hi Guys

I have a Gigabyte Q1000c. When I booted it up earlier it goes straight to a black screen with "Edit Boot Options".
If I hit Enter or ESC it goes black a continuously beeps.

I also made a boot USB with windows 7 on it started booting from this and goes to the screen that says "Loading Window 7" with the progress bar but after a little while hangs at a certain point with the same continuos beeping.

Any ideas on what I can do to fix this?

Thanks

sounds like a disk problem.

Get a competent person to reseat you drive to whether its a connection problem or whether it's something more serious

From what I've read it's either the MBR or a boot virus.
When I went into my BIOS it repeatedly popped up with the do you want to save changes - definitely not normal.

Disconnect other storage devices, CD-ROMs and try boot again.

Seems to have just corrected itself. thanks

You might want to run diagnostics on the hard drive and ram.

The drive is probably not connecting properly. I'd suggest it gets re-seated, otherwise when you move the machine the problems will reappear.

Try the suggestions on here it may help, since the problem doesnt vanish overnight so may still be there lurking so try and find what was causing it
