    BSOD on reversion to W7


    On seeing the W7 eol notification, I followed the directions to get a free u/g to W10. The first attempt failed but after a BIOS update to my Dell Precision M6700, it succeeded. However, I found that a couple of my favourite apps. did not work properly and I hated the GUI, so the following day I found out that it was possible to revert within a 10 day period and went ahead with this. It was on (I think) the 2nd reboot that the BSOD appeared and despite all my efforts, constantly recurs on boot-up. Help!

    OS = W7 pro 64-bit

    Windows 7 BSOD are best troubleshooted in our sister website Seven Forums.
    For failure to upgrade BSOD they can be troubleshooted here.
    There are some that are on both websites.

    This seems to span both, or at least would be of interest.
    If I might ask a question - I have copied DM log collector to the C drive but I can't run it (I get the BSOD mid boot) what can I do?

    If there are BSOD while using Windows 7 please troubleshoot in our sister website.
    They are most familiar with the Windows 7 OS.
