X51R2 random non boots at start up.
I have this problem that shows up randomly.
My x51r2 with w10, sometimes after the boot it starts normally with the loading screen showing the bios version and then it does not boot to the second loading screen with the Alienware logo.
I mean after the first Alienware loading screen the screen remains black and it never loads to windows. If I press control alt delete then booting is normal usually and it boots to the second Alienware logo screen and then windows normally. This doesn't happen very often but rather randomly. The pc runs very well in general but this is quite annoying.
Any ideas how to solve the problem or what could be wrong with the non boots ?
Thanks a lot !!!

Hello, friend,
I don't know exactly what is the problem but you can check at bios if your mode is UEFI or LegacyROM.
Mine was Legacy ROM (updated from windows 8 to 8.1 to 10 to 10.x 3 times) but at the windows creator's update
started boot problems. I changed the bios to UEFI (with secure boot on or off doesn't matter) and the problems were solved.
I guess the latest windows updates doesn't like LEgacy Bios ROM anymore.
If your boot mode is already in UEFI I can't help you ....
