    Hi,

    This could be an issue with the hardware or the operating system. Please press the F8 key during the Dell logo and check if you are able to see the Windows advanced options and login to the Safe mode or the Safe mode with networking.

    To isolate and identify the issue please run a Pre-boot System Assessment. To initiate the PSA you may press and hold the Fn key and turn on the system. Please use the below link for more information about the PSA and the error codes.

    I hope this helps. Please do write back with the test result in case you need any further assistance.

    Thanks & Regards
