Computer Fell On Floor Doesn T Boot

If the recovery environment won t load or doesn t see your hard drive you likely have a hardware problem.

Computer fell on floor doesn t boot.

I m not particularly computer savvy so i don t know how to. This should be done even if the computer doesn t show any obvious signs of damage. To prevent data loss in case it should fail in the near future back up all important files immediately to an external device. I wasn t there at the time so i m not sure exactly how it fell or if i heard something.

So my nephew decided to tip my computer tower over and being that it is fairly large and is on carpet it fell pretty hard. My computer then froze up and wouldn t respond at all even after trying ctrl alt delete. Maybe the computer doesn t turn on at all maybe it powers up but shuts right down or maybe it blue screens. It was working fine after the fall until i tried opening an mp3.

Now when i try and turn on my computer it says that windows didn t start properly and i have the choice of either. During a fall especially if the drive was running at the time of impact it is quite possible that the drive sustained damage. So i force shut down and after that windows wouldn t boot up. This is a particularly annoying way in which your computer won t turn on because you re trying to use windows built in ways to solve your problem but you re getting.

Whatever your issue here are some troubleshooting steps to take when your computer. My laptop was sitting on my dining room table when it fell off. Be sure to check your bios or uefi s boot order first if the recovery environment won t load.
