    Hi,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



    I understand that you are receiving a Blue Screen error with Bad_System_Config_Info. I’ll certainly help you with the issue.



    The error means that something is wrong with the registry on your PC and you'll need to return to a previous configuration. It would be great, if you can help us with the details requested below:



    • Are you aware of any changes made to the computer recently?
    • Does the computer boot to Desktop?


    I would suggest you to refer the steps mentioned in the article
    Error 0x74: Bad_system_config_info
    and see if that helps.



    Note: The last step in the above article talks about performing a reset on the computer. Resetting the computer will delete all the files and applications from the computer. Do not perform reset on your computer.
