Windows 10: bad_system_config_info error - truncatememory and numproc not showing in bcdedit

Hey there,

without any change in registry or similar, I turned off dektop PC and when I turned it on again, it showed the bad system config info error at blue screen.

system:

WINDOWS 10 (Home german Version 10.0.17134.1); Mother: MSI B350M Pro-VD Plus (MS-7B38); CPU AMD Ryzen 5 1600 Six-core; Memory: Ballistix 2400mhz, 8192MB


I tried:

1. command prompt:

C:

cd C:\windows\system32\config

md backup

copy *.* backup

cd regback

copy *.* ..

a

exit

-reboot


2. restore - not working

3. startup help - not working

4. to previous version - not working

5. command prompt:
bcdedit



tried to delete truncatememory and numproc, but they are not showing in bcdedit and I get an error again.


What should I do?

Also, how is it possible, that it just happens like that without me doing any changes? I was just playing PC games, youtube, and Word.. don't understand this...

Please help

:)

 

Windows 10 Blue Screen Error

Hi Spock_27,

The BAD_SYSTEM_CONFIG_INFO error can appear if your system configuration isn’t properly configured. This error will prevent access to Windows 10 completely. Try following the steps below to resolve the issue:

• Start Automatic Repair.
• Choose Troubleshoot > Advanced Options > Command Prompt.
• Once the Command Prompt starts, enter the following lines:
  • bcdedit/deletevalue {default} numproc
  • bcdedit/deletevalue {default} truncatememory
    
    
• Close Command Prompt and try starting Windows 10 again.

Let me know how it goes.

 

After memory upgrade "bad_system_config_info" No recovery methods work, only fresh install fixes.

Windows 10 blue screen BAD_SYSTEM_CONFIG_INFO


I had that same problem for awhile, here was my fix:

On windows 10, keep letting it boot until it goes into automatic startup repair, and in the menu that should popup, hit Troubleshoot. There, go to Advanced settings, and next, Command Prompt.

Here enter these EXACT commands:

bcdedit /deletevalue {defualt} truncatememory
bcdedit /deletevalue {default} numproc

Now shutdown and reboot!

Back to normal!

If this worked for you, PLEASE consider checking me out on YouTube, subscribe! I'll be doing a video on this soon.

Thanks, Alex.
