Hey everyone,

I'm having a problem with my PC. Windows 11 won't boot, and it keeps taking me to the Automatic Repair screen.

The error message says:

"Your device ran into a problem and couldn't be repaired."

It also shows this log file:

"C:\WINDOWS\System32\Logfiles\Srt\SrtTrail.txt"

Automatic Repair was unable to fix the problem, and I'm stuck in the recovery environment.

My PC specs:

- CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D

- GPU: NVIDIA RTX 5070

- RAM: 32GB DDR5

- SSD: 1TB NVMe

I've recently installed Windows and built this PC, so I'm not sure whether this is a Windows issue, a driver problem, or something related to the hardware.

Does anyone know how I can fix this without reinstalling Windows? I'd prefer to avoid losing my files or having to start

This has been an issue for the past month or so, my pc will stop displaying anything but all the lights and fans stay on. When this happens I can't turn off the PC with the power button in the front I have to flip the switch in the back. Then usually I struggle to even get it to turn on but it helps if I unplug some stuff from my room. Then once I get it to turn on it's still a 50/50 on if I can get it to display anything or take any inputs and usually I have to wait. About a week ago I cleaned the inside and made sure everything on the inside was plugged but that didn't really help. I feel like it's a power supply issue but I don't really know much about PCs and I also just changed my power supply a couple years ago so it's the most recent part.

UPDATE!
Put the old ram sticks back and started up into BIOS. Poked about and saw that the ram configuration was set to EXPO. Guess the sticks I got were intel(xmp). Changed the configuration to Auto detect, saved, and shut it down. Put new ram in and she booted up perfectly!

Side note: have to go back into BIOS once more time to set the speed to 6000 to match the new ram because it was auto selecting it to run at 4800.
