Windows 10 BSOD when trying to boot from USB

[vennzy]

I tried everything, from upgrading drivers to formating HDD and even fixing bootmngr, sfc/scannow, unplugging all USB devices. When I try to boot from USB it shows me the win10 logo, then this: http://imgur.com/3Pb5ykC and restarts. I am currently using win7 SP1, model: ASUS X50SL, 2 gb ram, 2 duos. I remember befoer I had win8 installed, and everything was fine, but then I moved to win7 and when I tried moving back to win8 i got the same error, then tried to win10, same error again ;/ idk what could be the problem, can someone help me? I'll try whatever you advice me.. I'm stuck with win7 forever.. Only win7 installation works

Hello vennzy

It looks like the USB drive you are using to install Windows 10 is not prepared correctly.

I would suggest you to use the official method of creating a bootable Windows 10 USB drive using the Media Creation Tool.

You can learn this from this tutorial.

Let me know if further assistance is needed. Good Luck!!

I don't think that is the case, vive, I already tried that. I also tried the dvd/usb windows tool that makes the USB device bootable with the .ISO image. Tried the method you provided, and it's still the same.

check to see if a memory .dmp fie was produced. if so, then put it on a server and post a link.
the last driver update for this machine was for windows vista.

Note: very old machine (windows vista time frame)

Where do I find the memory .dmp file?

 

[johnbl]

generally at c:\windows\minidump directory by default
but it is user settable and you might have to scan your driver for files with a .dmp file extension.

it is very common for old machines to have problems in it BIOS support for USB. Make sure you update the BIOS to the most current version you can get. Sometimes on the older machines you have to go into the BIOS and disable USB extensions if you can not get a BIOS update. if your machine has several USB ports try a port that is connected directly to the motherboard. Also try a USB port that is directly supported in the CPU chipset rather than one that requires a custom drivers.

Did you find a solution to your problem? I'm stuck with the same issue and can not find any solution.

Please keep me updated.

Am I understanding you right - do you want to upgrade from win 7 to win 10?

 

[Mx Fragz]

For me the issue occurs on a fresh install.
Previous Windows blue screened so I tried to fresh reinstall from a USB, but I'm getting constant blue screen when I boot on the USB stick with Windows installer on it.

 

[robert600]

and if so ... is your win 7 activated and up to date in terms of updates?

 

[robert600]

sorry Mx Fragz no ideas about fresh install except to reiterate what johnbl has said and use a usb 2 port if your machine has one.

i think i can help vennzy with his update though .... except he appears to have 'left the building' lol.
