My screen shows continuous some symbols while the system is starting up. If I press the enter key it will stop, otherwise it goes on and on for around 5-10 minutes.
Can anyone suggest how to resolve this?
I made this short video to illustrate the problem.

You've probably got a stuck key on your keyboard. Unplug the laptop's internal keyboard, and try using an external USB keyboard to confirm this.

I already use external keyboard, still I'm facing this problem at system boot. No problem faced when system booted.

Unplug either keyboard, reboot system, observe results. It's likely one keyboard or the other.

Unplug BOTH keyboards, and ALL other USB devices, and retry.
