Power failure during repair: Laptop not booting
Boggin:
See what Normal Startup gets you.
amf:
It just comes up with the Lenovo logo and then hangs
Boggin:
You could try System recovery and the Startup Repair, running that up to three times if it at first fails.
If it continues to report that it is unable to fix then in System recovery select Command Prompt and enter bcdedit |find "osdevice" then enter chkdsk x: /f where x=the partition letter to see what that reports.
That is a Pipe symbol before find and is the uppercase of \
It's unusual for an outage to cause a boot problem when a battery is installed to continue the power supply.
It's possible prior to the outage their was a surge which could have damaged hardware, but see what the chkdsk x: /f reports and if there are any KBs in bad sectors.
amf:
No Go so far
Boggin:
Which version of Windows are you using ?
