Help! My PC is Stuck in a Restart Loop with a BSOD

Asked By TechieNinja42 On

I've recently run into a frustrating problem with my PC. It started showing a blue screen with the error message, "Your device ran into a problem and needs to restart," and the Stop code is BAD_SYSTEM_CONFIG_INFO (0x74). Whenever I attempt to restart the computer, it just loops back to this blue screen. I've got options like trying again, entering Recovery Environment, accessing Startup Settings, or UEFI Firmware Settings, but nothing seems to work. I'm planning to take it to a repair shop soon, but I really want to see if I can fix this myself first to avoid potential overcharges.

It looks like the error is recurring. What have you downloaded recently? If you have access to another computer, a Windows installation USB might help with repairs.

If you're able to access Windows, you should check for any crash dump files in C:WindowsMinidump. These files can give us insights into what's causing the BSOD. You can zip that folder and upload it to a file-sharing site like MediaFire or Catbox. If you don’t find any files, try changing the dump settings to Small Memory Dump to generate more info for diagnosis.
