BSOD on install

I wanted to go to 7, but I was having issues, so I purchased a W10 Pro key and downloaded the genuine iso from Microsoft.

When I attempt to install from the flash drive, it goes to a black screen with a blue windows logo, and then the BSOD that says “stop code: system thread exception not handled”. This is a clean install over a failed W7 install on a brand new SSD.

I’m lost and frustrated and don’t know what to do and ready to go back to XP. Please help!

Custom build:
Intel QX6800 Core 2 Duo Quad Core Extreme Edition @2.93GHz
Intel DQ965GF mobo
8Gb PC2-6400
Nvidia GeForce 8400GS
Kingston 240Gb SSD

You're not getting very far into the installation sequence.

At a guess, there's a hardware issue. Maybe bad RAM.

Can you get into the BIOS setup? Maybe reset to defaults?

Yes, I can get into Bios. All of the setting appear to be correct there. I’ve tried several different sticks of ram as well. No luck so far.

Too bad. I have no clue.

Is Windows 7 still installed or is it unallocated space?

When the computer is powered on what do you see and hear?

Find a camera or smartphone camera to take pictures and post images into the thread.

Have you determined W10 Pro would run on this MB ? It appears outdated.

The W7 installation failed. It booted to the W7 splash screen, and then went to a blank black screen with a mouse pointer in the middle of it. After fooling with that a few times, I decided to see if 10 would work.

Yes, all equipment should work fine with W7/W10.
