I have a asus x200ca laptop and recently it has only booted up to the Aptio Setup utility.

I thought it was a hard drive issue so i replaced the hard drive but had the same issue. I read on here to enable launch CSM and disable the secure boot control, but when i do that it boots to a black screen and says reboot or insert proper boot device and press any key.

On the BIOS screen it does show the hard drive, but wont boot to it

Anyone have any idea on what could be wrong with the computer?

6. In here select "Advanced Start Up" and then, once the recovery menu appears, select "Advance Options".

7. Choose "System Restore" and select a date prior to when the problem started.

The computer should now go through the restore process and then start normally for you.
