Windows 10: How to produce BSOD data for posting here if Win 10 will not boot?

My 64-bit Windows 10 Pro 1809 system has been booting and working fine. Then I created a clone of the entire system disk (120 GB Samsung SSD) using Acronis Disk Director 12.5 booted from a flash drive. When this was finished, I removed the backup device and the DD flash drive and rebooted.

Now I always get a BSOD "IO1 Initialization Failed" *Mad. Every time. Even if I remove all other peripherals except the same old USB keyboard and mouse.

To state the obvious, I made ZERO changes. No driver changes, no hardware changes, nothing. But of course I must emphatically SCREAM: *Eek "Windows 10 1809 is the foulest, MOST bug-ridden piece of binary excrement in software history!"

For example, there's the absurdly evil "enhancement" to the file association configuration system (one must calculate one's own hash values to change many default file associations in the registry - unless you have special software to do it). Then there's the non-stop catastrophe of bugs that includes:

(1) Random flashing of windows and the task bar.
(2) Random flashing of "Not Responding" in application window title bar every half-second or so.
(3) Application windows that will not show up when you press its task bar item.
(4) Disappearing application windows that you cannot restore, even if you try to cascade or tile them.

I won't go on. I've tried all the suggested solutions: Disabling various services, disabling various drivers, disabling various Windows features, such as mouse stuff and easy access stuff, and every other suggestion I've found. A few of those have produced small or moderate improvements, but all of these issues still occur - VERY OFTEN!

Anyway, I've read the BSOD posting instructions, but they do not cover how to obtain the information in question if the OS won't boot at all (due to the "IO1 Initialization Failed" BSOD). Should I try to force a Safe Mode boot by resetting the computer three times? Or should I boot up the MS Win 10 install drive? If the latter, what extra operations/steps/commands must I perform in order to obtain the correct info to post?

And may I suggest that this situation be covered in the BSOD Posting Instructions stickie?

Thanks

Win 10 boots...

I can't answer to the speed of Win-8 booting. I tried the Win-8 preview and went back to Win-7 after a month. They say that Win-8.1 is a lot better than Win-8 was.
My Win-10 TP is working well ATM.
