So I have been trying to figure out why when I restart my PC just sits and the boot screen with the loading animation just spinning forever. When I do a total shutdown and cold boot it works fine. I know this can be a complicated issue, especially with limited information. So Im fully willing to provide any information that might help. Just not sure what that might be. Is there anyhing in the Event Viewer that would show what the problem is even though windows hasnt started yet? I do not know if this is related but it sure seems suspicious. When I look at bcdedit I get this...
C:\Windows\System32>bcdedit

resumeobject {7012cb0e-408f-11ec-bad2-000272a965f4}
nx OptIn
bootmenupolicy Standard
A device which does not exist was specified.
Most all of that looks fine but I noticed the "device unknown" under the bootmgr section and at the end "A device which does not exist was specified." I dont know if that has anything to do with my boot dilemma but it definitely seems like something that could be imortant and should not be there.
My PC is one I built and the basic hardware is...
ASRock AB350 Pro 4
AMD Ryzen 7 3700x
Samsung 2tb EVO 960 m.2
64gb (16x4) gskill Trident DDR4
Arous 3080 Master 10g Rev 2.0
Various other HDD, SSD and 1tb m.2 in addition to the system drive
Various Corsair RGB components.
Any advice at all would be great and I thank everyone ahead of time.
