Upgraded to Win 10 from 8.1 recently and it was working fine. This morning when I tried to boot it won't. Stays stuck in a 'your PC ran into a problem' loop and shows a 'system thread exception not handled' error.
I hadn't got a chance to create a recovery disk (the Internet tells me I need this to be able restore without losing my files and data).
I have a Win 7 laptop which I'm typing this on but which hasn't received its Win 10 update so that I can create a recovery disk on it.
Help!
I am in the same boat. I stupidly didnt create a boot usb or disk. Chose to upgrade using the media tool. I am now in the same blue screen of death loop. I then created a windows 10 64bit boot usb on another computer. I have made that the priority boot option in the bios but still stuck in the same loop..help!Upgraded to Win 10 from 8.1 recently and it was working fine. This morning when I tried to boot it won't.

I am in the same except I do have another laptop, a Dell Inspiron, with windows 10 installed and working fine (so far). The problem laptop is a 4 year old HP. Can I create a recovery USB/DVD from the Dell to try and boot the HP laptop?I have the same problem ...

I managed to make a recovery disk from my Dell Inspiron. Using this to try and boot the HP/Compaq laptop I get the 'Press any key to boot from DVD' I do this and the drive whirrs and I get a windows logo on screen. It stays like that with the drive whirring away for about 2 minutes then I can see the little animated loading gif start to work. It gets halfway and then I get BSOD. System Thread Exception not handled. This laptop was working fine until the automatic update earlier in the week. Now I have a bricked laptop. Thanks Microsoft!

Managed to speak to Microsoft Tech support. Very helpful but only recourse was to boot using windows 8 media and re-install windows 8. Do a custom install. This wiped my C: drive but left my DATA partition intact. Thankfully all I lost were a few programs that I can re-install. The MS guy said it was a wide issue and they were working on finding the cause.
