I am very concerned that the Lenovo x131e is bricked.
I put in the Win10 HD. It starts to boot and the windows logo starts
spinning and the system promptly shuts down.
It may be memory, and I will have to see if I have any matching memory
here (see if it uses the same as my x120e which I have a number of).
I am concerned this happened at the step where the EFI is updated. This
happened to my back in maybe F21? There the system would still boot of
LiveCD and we were able to make manual changes for the booting. But
burned once...
Any recommendations on what I can do with this system? I will check on
memory, but otherwise, HELP. Please?
thanks

Best is if you download liveDVD and try. You like xfce -->
https://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/releases/30/Spins/x86...
or torrent
https://torrent.fedoraproject.org/torrents/Fedora-Xfce-Live-x86_64-30.tor...
Once you boot up LiveDVD xfce open terminal and run this command lspci
| grep -i --color 'vga\|3d\|2d'.Share with us findings if you before
that not successfully install fedora spin xfce on your laptop.
