W7 fail after W10 upgrade attempt fail.

I already tried that. The Media Creation Tool gives the option to upgrade the computer, or download & save the ISO file for another computer. I tried both options, and early on got the blue screen with error message shown in my last post....

Does knowing the error code shown help any????

Thank You!

There is a Windows build upgrade scheduled to be available by windows updates on May 8 from build 1709 to build 1803. There is an early bird download option that is scheduled to start tomorrow.
So in addition to the typical updates you may want to troubleshoot the upgrade instead.
This should be easy as it is a brand new computer and a clean install can be performed to install Windows 10 build 1803.

Open a Microsoft account so that you have a backup for any operating system problems.

The clean install can be done with a flash drive.
Find a flash drive that you can format ( > or = 8 GB)
On or after May 1, 2018 create a bootable Windows 10 iso:
Download Windows 10
