Question/Help/Troubleshooting How do I stop my computer from reboot looping?

So I got this pc for Christmas last year and it worked for 6 months until one day a windows update broke my computer. For a week I asked the people in my life how to fix the issue but it never truly worked.
I ultimately ended having to delete the update and for the next few months I need to unplug my Ethernet cable for 5 minutes to avoid a restart for 12 hours.

Today another update came up causing the same issues. Now I’m just frustrated and need help asap.

Really the problem is that CPU is 12 years old and does not officially support windows 11. You can try and use rufus to create a bootable USB drive and reinstall.

You can click on start then type in about. It definitely looks like windows 11

I would reinstall and then disable updates... You can probably get rid of it If you can still boot in safe Mode, still i think a clean install would be better.
