Asus ROG GL503

restarted my computer today as it was running a bit sluggish and it went through the usual restart plus update

after finishing the update however it rebooted into an error

the error read “invalid signature detected, secure boot violation” and then booted into BIOS

i found that this is a somewhat common issus, at least common enough to have tons of videos and threads on the topic around the internet. i used that to find the common method of fixing the issue and in doing so got rid of the error message. except now i cannot leave bios and boot my computer normally.

no matter what i do, no matter what shortcuts i try, my cpu constantly boots into bios.

if it matters at all the method to fixing the issue was disabling secure boot control

anyway if anyone knows anything or can help me i will luv you forever

Re-enable secure boot control and see what happens. You may have to reset the BIOS to factory settings.

when i do that the error just comes back

the only thing i can think of is to download a fresh copy of windows 10 onto an external device and boot from that. maybe it encountered the error before the download finished? worth a shot i guess. ive played with every thing in bios that i felt comfortable doing off of my own judgement so im coming to a dead end here.

I'm totally guessing here, but maybe...

From: ASUS Rog stuck in boot loop - Laptop Tech Support

Note: If this problem started after an update (or system reinstall), please make sure the laptop is not connected to the internet in any way before you use the following instructions.

Try the following...

1. Power off the laptop.
2. Power on the laptop.
3. As soon as you see the rotating loading circle, press and hold the Power Button until the computer shuts off.
4. Repeat this process a few times until you see the "Preparing Automatic Repair" screen.
5. Now you want to let the laptop boot to the "Automatic Repair" screen.
6. Click "Advanced Options" and then select "Troubleshoot".
7. Here you want to select "Refresh your PC", if you do not wish to erase data, or "Reset your PC" to erase all data and restore your system.
8. From here just follow the screen instructions until the recovery is completed.

NOTE: You will need to get into the "Advanced Options" in order to get the "Refresh Option". This choice will keep your data, but any programs installed will be lost.

Do not do a "Reset" as that will wipe all data you have on the laptop.

Thanks, Plank! You're the man.

didnt work

With the laptop totally off, try holding ESC while pressing the ON button. This should pull up the Safe Mode options.

tried the usb stick with windows 10 downloaded on it and it’s working so far... fingers crossed this is going to fix it.

[Plankton]

I hope you get it working.

seems like every solution comes with a new group of problems
redownloading windows led to my computer shutting down mid download and getting stuck in a repair boot loop

found a solution to that through command prompts however and right at this moment im going through the windows 10 set up... not sure i’m home free yet but it’s looking promising.
