Archos 140 Cesium

Hello,

I am writing on this forum regarding my Archos 140 Cesium. This PC turned off during a Windows 10 update... and I can no longer use it. When I try to turn on the computer, it displays "undoing changes made to Windows" and restarts in a loop.
As a result, I tried to boot from a USB stick, but the computer refuses to boot, which means it does not boot and goes back to the BIOS or the command prompt...

I am running out of options; could you please help me?
Thank you very much.

    Hello. To boot from a USB drive, a PC must receive either a command (a function key) or an option in the BIOS.
    Have you performed one of these operations?

      Good evening,
      I tried through the BIOS... I feel like it's getting stuck... the boot doesn't happen, let's say, I go straight back into the BIOS...
      I don't know if you understand?
      Thank you

        I tried through the BIOS Does that mean you set the USB key as the first boot device?
        What is the content of the USB key?

        Yes, I tried to set up a Windows 10 USB key and put it in the boot order... and it comes back to the same thing
        Furthermore, I tried to boot override.. and it comes back the same...
        Best regards

    Try turning on your PC and force it to shut down while it's booting, three times in a row. You may see the recovery window pop up.

      I'll try after if that works for you?
      Would another type of contact be possible? Please? Thank you.

      Hello,
      After several attempts, nothing works, I still don't have the recovery page, so no solution yet...
      Would it be possible to contact each other verbally, or otherwise?
      Thank you.

      Hello. No contact other than through the forum, that's the rule.
      The problem is that with your comments, we can't tell if you have a good grasp of the tools (W10 USB key, boot order in the BIOS) and there is indeed a problem, or if you're responding that you've done the manipulations without knowing what you were supposed to do.
      The PC seems fairly recent, so your key must be in GPT. Is that the case? How exactly did you create the W10 key?

      Finally, this kind of PC is an abomination. 2GB of RAM and a 32GB eMMC drive (29GB once formatted)! (if your PC matches what is mentioned online).

      Hello
      As for the tools... I think I'm good, I can create a bootable USB drive, etc., because I managed to do it on my other PC... it's just that this one is giving me trouble...
      I'm not familiar with all the procedures... if it would be possible to help me, please...
      Yes, it is indeed this one, it is 32GB...
      Thank you

    Try rather with Rufus, specifically mentioning GPT.
    The ISO does come from the Microsoft site, right?
