Windows 7 nonstop BSOD on boot. Also where are disk images stored?
I restarted my desktop (for the first time in a couple weeks), and on boot up ran into a BSOD:
STOP: 0x0000007E (0xFFFFFFFFC0000005, 0xFFFFF8000355AB5A, 0xFFFFF880031CB3A8, 0xFFFFF880031CAC10)
I tried system restore, but there was only 1 restore point which was from all the way back in January. I tried it anyway but after 10 minutes of running it said system restore could not be completed.
I am confused why there is only one restore point.
Additional info:
I checked my BIOS and it is detecting my rams. CPU is Intel Sandy Bridge i5-2500k overclocked to 4.3GHz. I reclocked it back to stock speeds (3.3 GHz) in case it was causing the issue (I highly doubt that it is). But the problem persists.
Running Windows 7.
12 GB of RAM at 1333 MHz
OS on 64gb SSD.
What is causing this? How should I fix it?
Also, if it is caused by windows update, is there a way to undo the update with command prompt?
I tried safemode, and the blue screen comes up as well, but I am able to access command prompt.
---------------------------------------------
After about a week of frustration, I decided to simply restore my system to a disk image that I have (apparently). However, I wish to move it to a different drive (it is currently on my data disk), so I can start the restore. All my research on the location
of disk image has been fruitless (people tend to put completely unhelpful answers).
