After updating to Windows 10, my old Dell laptop won't turn on.

An older Dell laptop failed to boot properly after attempting to update to Windows 10. Seeking recovery or downgrade solutions for compatibility issues with older hardware.

    Power on the laptop and force shutdown (hold the power button) as soon as Windows starts to load.
