I have a Vivobook S530U which I dual-boot between Ubuntu and Windows 11. It has been running fine for months. Yesterday while running Windows it gave a blue screen and then rebooted to BIOS, where it was not showing any system drives. It has not been willing to boot Windows 11 since then. Actually after that first reboot it would not even go back to BIOS until I removed the drive. I tried the original drive it came with, which still has Windows 10, and that still boots. Then I put my drive back in and was able to get Ubuntu booting again but still if I try to boot Windows it hangs on the logo screen.
Next step, I thought, would be to make a Windows 11 install USB drive and try System Repair. Only... the USB drive does not boot. Hangs the same way as my regular Windows 11 install does. Other USB drives boot fine -- with Ubuntu, Chrome OS Flex -- and the one I made from Windows 11 did boot OK on a different laptop.
Any idea what broke Win11 boot and whether it's fixable somehow?
