Hello,
Recently my PC has gotten a virus. I've tried to get rid of it but every time i ran a scan with Malewarebytes the virus is always there once again. Since I have nothing of any value on my PC (besides steam games which i can easily reinstall) i figured i would do the Windows 10 reset where it clears all of your files and re-installs Windows in order to get rid of the malware. I began the re-installation process selecting the option which states "Use this option if you plan to keep the PC." After selecting this i let it begin. When i left my house the reinstall was at 1%. When i came back (1 hour later) it was at 2%. I thought something could be wrong with the reinstall since i had done a reinstall on the same PC before and it didn't take nearly this long. So i proceeded to shutdown and restart the PC. After doing this i realized it was a big mistake. Now my PC loads up the BIOS menu, but then the screen goes black and repeats this over and over. Anyone have any ideas on what to do? All help is much appreciated!
 
Csn be anything from failing hard drive to bad ram. You can try removing and reinserting memory. Also try disconnecting hdd to see if system reacts normally.
 
Yeah. Since you've tried to erase everything, just boot from the ISO (USB or DVD) and do a clean reinstall. You'd most likely need to make the ISO from another Windows PC, with the tool linked from Darren. Windows will automatically activate, assuming it was activated before :)
