Blue Screen ACPI_BIOS_ERROR

Hi,

Thank you for bringing up your query on Microsoft Community.

Apologize for the difficulties that you're experiencing in Windows 10.

Not to worry, we’re here to help you out.

• Are you able to boot to the desktop?

A blue screen error (also called a stop error) can occur if a problem causes your PC to shut down or restart unexpectedly.

The ACPI_BIOS_ERROR bug check has a value of 0x000000A5. This bug check indicates that the Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) BIOS of the computer is not fully compliant with the ACPI specification. For more information regarding this
error, please refer to this MSDN article:

Bug Check 0xA5: ACPI_BIOS_ERROR

Step 1:

Initially, I suggest you to unplug the external devices connected to the computer (except mouse and keyboard) then restart the computer and check.

Step 2:

I suggest you to press and hold the Power button until the computer turns off completely.

Next time you boot up you might get the black screen with the logon options, choose
Start Windows Normally to boot to the desktop screen.

Disclaimer: Modifying BIOS/ Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor (CMOS) settings incorrectly can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from booting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that any problems resulting
from the configuring of BIOS/CMOS settings can be solved. Modifications of the settings are done at your own risk.

Hope it helps.

Let us know the status, we are glad to assist you further.

Hi,

A faulty hardware is one of the possible reasons why you are having a blue screen error, ACPI_BIOS_ERROR. Since the RAM sticks are giving different blue screen errors, we suggest that you try running Memtest to verify which hardware is faulty. To do this, you
can follow the steps in this
Forum Article that was provided by JMH3143. Once you verify if it is a memory issue or motherboard issue, we recommend that you contact the store where you purchased your device for further assistance.
