Thank you all

It’s possibly faulty RAM, you can test by running it on one stick at a time. If you get it to boot then do a few passes with memtest.

In addition to a RAM problem, which is a possibility, it could also be your hard drive that's at fault. You can test that by opening a command prompt and running the chkdsk /f /r command. You will have to reboot afterwards.
If this is a Windows 10 system it would be wise to use the Media Creation Tool here to download a new copy of Windows 10 and do a reinstall with that. It's remotely possible that your current installation media is corrupted.

As above, do a test with memtest 86.
Right, sorry guys but i was in holiday. Anyway, I was at pc Currys and did a hardware analysis: All right, the problem is software, but the guarantee only covers hardware elements, so there was a reinstall from the W10 virtually from zero, from another source, and I've got a quick one: I have a friend who will soon give me a usb pen with W10, but for the product key, my own, where do I find it to activate the new W10 copy? Thanks Again

The key is embedded in the bios, so as long as you install the correct version, it will automatically register.
You can download the latest ISO for free from here:

Just select the USB tool to create a bootlable USB key.

Your firend's copy of Windows 10 MUST be exactly the same version that you have. If you have Windows 10 Home for example, you cannot install Windows 10 Pro instead.
Before the techies complain: Except of course in certain very special circumstances that we don't need to go into here.

Genuine question: does the retail version of Windows 10 still allow you to switch versions?
With the volume licensed versions if you're stuck you can use the option to enter the license key later, during installation, then by adding the correct license key post-install, it'll up- or downgrade the version there and then by adding or removing the necessary features.
I never deal with retail or OEM versions hence why I'm asking.
