I have a Windows 8.1 Lenovo brand PC. It recently prompted me to update so I did, and now when I try to startup the PC, it says Lenovo for about 5 seconds and then the PC turns off EVERY SINGLE TIME! I got it to somewhat boot where it told me it couldn't boot correctly and then gave me about 5 options which included Recovery Disc, Startup Repair,(etc.). What could have caused this and how can I fix it? Keep in mind that I can't even get as far as the login screen.
My Windows 8.1 Lenovo PC will not boot correctly after update?

That's why you don't update your computer

You might want to check on the Lenovo website/forum for other people using that specific model, if they face the same issue. It may be some obscure bug in the particular update with hardware incompatibility - since windows run off so many hardware combinations, it is impossible for Microsoft to guarantee perfect working condition for all possible setups.
Try to run a startup repair or a revert to last known working state, if the options are available to you. These options do not cause loss of data. If you are partially savvy, you can make a second windows boot using the windows disc that came with the laptop. Since you do not destroy the previous installation, you will have all your data locked in the boot 1 of windows. There are tricks that can grant you access to your data. Then you should back it up and do a clean re-install of windows. Wiping everything and facing data loss should not be an necessary option, unless you want an easy way out.
