Dear all,

Recently I refurbished my late 2013 Mac book pro and decided to install a windows OS as well, since now I had more space. Initially I did it through boot camp. Following the procedure, I partitioned my main ssd and successfully installed windows 10. Windows worked perfectly for one day. The next day windows started bootlooping. Always the same sequence. The windows logo would come up and the machine would restart twice before the repair screen would come up. I didn’t pay much attention as I had already decided to erase the partition and create an external windows boot disk which I also did successfully with a combination of boot camp and Virtual box. It worked well for a day and the next day the same problem as before reappeared. I have tried all the repair options and nothing works. Strange thing is that it works perfectly on a newer iMac (2017) that I have been testing it on the past two days. All this is an indication that it is something that has to do with my machine. The installation is clean since it is working else where. My Mac OS is big sur and the windows 10 that I am using is not activated. If anyone could help I would much appreciate it. Thank you
