When i start up my Samsung laptop, all it does is show the Samsung logo for a brief moment and then it shuts down again and the cycle continues. I cant even enter bios (and yes im pressing the right key). All i can do is enter the boot menu. I made a bootable windows USB through Windows media creation tool and it still did not show up in the boot menu. Not even the SSD shows up. Any help?

Hello mak31,
There are three possible causes and three potential solutions to fixing your computer if it falls into a boot loop.
  1. Windows Updates Gone Wrong:- Sometimes Microsoft doesn’t test all of their updates thoroughly enough with the many thousands of types of PCs and Mac computers running windows.
  2. Failing Hard Drive:- When a hard drive fails, the important system files that your computer needs to run can become corrupted or simply missing altogether. The early warning signs are computers that aren’t working properly, unusually slow, acting strangely, or boot loop.
  3. Driver Conflict:- Did you recently install something? A new camera, a printer, scanner, new video card, etc.? Chances are if you installed something new, restarted your computer and you’re stuck in a boot loop, the new piece of hardware is the cause.
I do know that the SSD works, because i tried it on my main PC and it works fine. And i don't think its Windows because i installed Windows on the SSD today and nothing changed.
