Installed Linux Mint. Now cant boot computer at all [on hold]












-1














I installed Linux mint on my Lenovo E130 on a separate partition after my Windows 10 partition. It all sort of booted up fine, although I could not access my Lenovo bios setup by pressint f1, I could only access it from the Linux boot menu. It was called system setup. Strange. I had a problem with Linux mint. It kept opening up 30 or so home folders before freezing. I tried all the recommended fixes. Gave up and deleted Linux partition. Now I cant enter system setup, can not boot from cd. I only get grub bash menu. I removed hard drive, erased and installed all my Windows 10 partitions from a paragon backup. Removed bios battery to reset bios. Now I get
0271: Real Time Clock Error - Check Date and Time settings
Press Esc to continue or F1 to enter setup.
It freezes here I can not enter setup or continue. What did this linux mint install do to my laptop. No problems ever before. Tried to reflash bios, cannot will not boot from cd.
