Laptop doesn't work anymore what to do?

My laptop worked great before and all of a sudden it only says Automatic repair is being prepared and then a black image. Is there anything i can do about it? Is that normal? He's pretty old, I should say

Then you should let him do the automatic repair in peace…

But after that there's only a black picture, nothing more happens

You might just wait an hour or so. If it doesn't go away in two or three hours, I can't help you either.

Normally at some point a message comes up that you should restart or something, it just takes a while.

Okay I'll try

Send a photo and / or video as started

and is terminated

Should in this case take care of itself, however, it usually takes an incredibly long time. Automatic repairs usually happen when the PC / laptop was not shut down properly.

When something is edited… What do you do.

wait until the tax office or in this case your computer reports.

GGGAAANNNZZZ Important!

Do not shut down!

So i have to reckon with several hours? It's been on for a while now and still just black screen no longer

If it's an older laptop, it can take several hours. It was no different for me (about 6-8 hours for me). If it doesn't stop automatically "repairing" itself, then it can be a critical operating system error. Then you have to turn to experts.

Now there's no longer automatic repair but boot failed…

Then it is definitely an operating system bug.

I probably can't do anything about that, can I?

If it still doesn't work after three days, I would load it to a PC or something. I also had it with my old laptop and it worked again afterwards

I probably have to pay a good 100 euro for it and the laptop is very, very old

Then you have to turn to an expert. The reinstall the operating system. With a little luck, the data will still be saved

And how much would that cost?

Unfortunately, I don't know, I'm sorry.
