Hello lordstark. Pwede mo po ba ipost specs ng laptop mo?

Have you tried this?
1. Change the boot sequence
If your computer is connected with external hard drives beyond one, most of time, the error “Invalid Partition Table” occurs on account of mistaken boot order. In this circumstance, you can restart your computer. Then enter BIOS on startup and set the disk that contains operating system as the first option for booting. Finally, reboot computer to see whether the Windows system can boot normally.

2. Upgrade the BIOS version
When you install Windows 10 on an SSD and the BOIS is out-dated, it might lead to the error “Invalid Partition Table”. In this case, you need to upgrade the BIOS to the latest version. Download the latest BIOS from the manufacturer website on a working computer to a bootable device and install the BIOS from the bootable device. After upgrading, reboot your computer.

3. Inactive Partition using Diskpart in Windows 10
Well, it is possible that the error occurs as a result of excessive active partitions. Only one partition should be set as active to boot from; if number of active partitions over one, the system is unable to choose one to boot from. At this time, you should check and change partitions status. The steps to inactive partitions are as follows:

2. Choose proper language, time and keyboard input; then, click “Repair your computer.

3. Select the drive that Windows 10 installed on, and click “Next”.

4. Choose Command Prompt in the “System Recovery Options” interface.

5. Type “list volume” and press “Enter”>Type “list volume” and press “Enter” to realize which partitions are active partition > Type “select volume n” and press “Enter”> Type “inactive” and press “Enter”.

PS: The active volume(s) will have a “*” next to its name; “n” means the drive letter that belong to the drive that you want to mark as inactive.

6. Reboot the system to see whether the problem is solved.
