Computers and electronic devices are not perfect<\/strong>. The operative system they carry inside isn\u2019t either. A bug or error is annoying but it\u2019s also a possibility. It can make your computer work slowly or impede the system to properly start. If you are using Windows 11 and it doesn\u2019t start you may be experiencing an operative system failure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Luckily there are some steps you can take in order to prevent these kinds of errors<\/strong>. You can optimize your Windows 11 to prevent errors to some extent. Here you will find how to avoid and solve errors in your operative system faster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Revise<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Check your hardware if Windows 11 doesn\u2019t start<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

First of all you should revise your system hardware<\/strong>. Sometimes a physical component of your computer may be the cause of a system crash. In order to identify the component that it\u2019s malfunctioning you should try different actions related to that component. The most common ones include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Storage unit<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This is where all the files go. The operative system files as well as games, movies or songs we download. If the hard drive disk or the solid state drive start failing you won\u2019t be able to open or navigate through your files. It\u2019s usual for your computer not to turn on if the disk is broken. You can\u2019t open, read or write any kind of file if the device doesn\u2019t work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Your Windows 11 may not start or you can be sent directly to the BIOS screen<\/strong>. There are cases when the computer only starts with a blank screen and you can\u2019t do anything else. You can verify the HDD or SSD life connecting it to another device.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Memory RAM modules<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"Check<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The memory RAM units are one of the most common failing components in a computer. They can make your system to stop working or directly not even run. The RAM memory connects the CPU and other components together. If it reaches high temperatures it can turn down your system forcefully.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To check a memory RAM module<\/strong> you should make sure it\u2019s well placed. The grip tabs hold the memory RAM module and they have to make a click sound if it\u2019s correctly placed. If you have more than one RAM module you can try them one by one to detect which one may be failing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If Windows 11 doesn\u2019t start make sure the temperatures are right<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Most of the computer electronic components don\u2019t work if they reach certain temperatures<\/strong>. You have to make sure the computer cabinet is well ventilated. The CPU along the RAM modules are the most sensitive components to high temperatures. The system will shut itself down if the temperatures are too high.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If your Windows 11 doesn\u2019t start because of temperature issues, you have to check the value on the BIOS<\/strong>. The main screen of the BIOS indicates the temperature of several components. The coolers are also a signal of high temperature. If you can hear them working faster it\u2019s because the temperature inside the cabinet is high.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Update errors<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Another common issue is when the Windows 11 updates<\/a> and it doesn\u2019t start immediately after. Maybe one of the files didn\u2019t download properly or the process was interrupted. Sometimes the compilation originates a software incompatibility. You can easily fix this issue by following these steps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Forcefully shut down the computer.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Restart the computer with the Automatic Recovery Mode.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Select Advanced Options \u2013 Troubleshooting \u2013 System symbol.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Introduce the command chkdsk C: \/f \/r and press enter in the CMD.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    The command should fix the corrupted update of Windows 11 <\/strong>and allow you to start again or to use your Windows 11 with the previous configuration. If the mistake is not fixed you can try the following commands on the CMD:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
