What are specs of the PC?
Is it a custom build or Brand name PC?
If custom, do you know motherboard?
If brand name, what make/model?

Likely need to change bios settings to boot off USB

STATUS_IMAGE_CHECKSUM_MISMATCH
Cause
This bug check results from a serious error in a driver or other system file. The file header checksum does not match the expected checksum.
This can also be caused by faulty hardware in the I/O path to the file (a disk error, faulty RAM, or a corrupted page file).

if kernel is missing, windows won't work at all. But we can try to rescue any info off PC once we can boot off USB and then clean install.
