Hola, hace días actualicé mi Corebox (no sé qué tipo de Corebox es, solo pone CoreBox, es un i5, 16gb RAM) de windows 10 a windows 11 y aparentemente todo fue normal. Sin embargo empezáron a aparecer luego errores (pantalla azul) y finalmente se ha quedado así: cuando pulso el botón de power solo muestra la pantalla del logo y no hace nada más. No puedo entrar en la Bios ya que he pulsado F7, ESC y otras teclas al inicio y no sale el menú de la bios. Tampoco hace nada con un pendrive usb para instalar de nuevo windows 11.
Hi, days ago I updated my Corebox (not sure if it is 4th gen or not, it only says Corebox, it is an i5 16gbRAM) from windows 10 to windows 11 and everything was ok. However later on it started showing black screens of death (blue error screens) and finally this is the current status: when I press the power button it onlly shows the logo screen and thats all. I cannot enter the Bios. I have tried to press F7, ESC or other keys but I am unable to enter the Bios screen. I attached the usb with the windows 11 installation I used to update but it does nothing.
Hi, thanks for the files. I have downloaded everything and followed the instructions: formated the usb in NTFS with the label WINPE and unzipped the files into it.
Once I have inserted the usb, I press the power on in the corebox pressing F7 at the same time but nothing happens…the chuwi logo appears and thats all. There is no menu, no bios screen, nothing…just the logo screen in black. I have tried different keyboards (they all work) and no result.
Is there any other key combination to display the bios or the menu for the boot device??
I haven’t touch the hardware, I only tried to install windows 11 with an usb stick with the original windows 11 system installation.
thanks
Thanks for the reply @manonegra222 but I tried that too, intermittently and also hold down, but none of them makes the menu appear , only the chuwi logo appears
You are close @jaap! I did the power on, hold power on for 10 seconds to turn it off (before chuwi logo appears but at first sign computer is on—>in my case the keyboard led is on) three times one after another and this screen appeared. However when I pressed the Esc key to enter the setup it never entered…(later on I read the key to be pressed should be Y then Enter…it is bug in the bios message)
I repeated the proccess but now I cannot display the bios main screen again. So it must be something related to windows itself?. It looks like after some error it blocked the boot process or something like that. I will go on to see if am able to display the bios screen again. Cheers
I tried to repair in windows safe mode without success
Then I tried to reinstall windows without success
Then I tried to install Ubuntu, and I got this message “disk is likely to fail soon”, and don’t let me install Ubuntu.
Conclusion, my corebox is not in guarantee period, I bought it five years ago, so I just buy a new mini pc, it’s better for me that buy a new SSD for the corebox, I just need the PC to connect in a remote PC…
Please check the SSD health before to try to reinstall anything, and make sure to do some periodic backups.
