When I turn on the tablet, I always get a screen for "SAMSUNG" but then:
Windows Recovery Environment. Your PC needs to be repaired. A required device isn't connected or can't be accessed. Error Code 0xc0000185. Your PC doesn't have the Windows Recover Environment installed. ...
Any attempt to access BIOS (Holding Win Key while turning on or holding Volume Key while turning on) fails to produce any results, although sometimes this does result in a split second screen that says "Windows Devolper Preview. Preparing automatic repair", but then continues to the Error screen.
I'm attempting to get into the BIOS to turn on the boot order to boot to USB first so I can overwrite the OS.
Is this thing a brick now?
Did you run a developer preview version of Windows before the issue started to occur? – alljamin – 2017-01-19T03:36:41.170
@alljamin - This is a hand-me-down so I didn't get much info (I can ask if I need to). But since it says Windows Developer Preview I assume that yes, it was a preview of Windows 8 installed on top of Windows 7. – VenerableAgents – 2017-01-19T16:06:31.750
Holding the Windows button down while powering up worked for me. – Mike Lowery – 2019-06-07T01:53:15.153
