Hi guys really need some help please. Last night I was trying to install smb1 on my htpc to be compatible with my drobo fs.

It froze on the restart to complete the installation. I then held the power button down to shut down and then that's when all the problems started.

All it does now is blue screen. Clock watchdog timeout was one code. I can get as far as when windows says getting devices ready on a fresh usb install but then blue screens before 100%.

I tried a live version of Ubuntu and that works fine. I then installed that to the ssd and that also works great. I just can't get windows to work on it anymore.

What should I do next please?

I've also disconnected all the other hard drives and swapped the ssd. All usb devices are disconnected apart from the keyboard dongle.
 
Just got this when trying to install Windows 0x000001d4 and the after a restart "whea_uncorrectable_error" and has frozen at 1%.
 
Which version of Windows are you installing? As there are several issues with 2004 right now, so I'd recommend installing 1909 for the time being.

It's an old version from a genuine usb stick. I've somehow got it to install and did boot a few times with no issue. So I started plugging stuff back in and when the blu ray drive was plugged back in it blue screened on start up.

I have since removed the lead but cant get it to boot unless in safe mode.
 
Install of latest windows 10 on a fresh usb went perfect untill it said it needs to restart to finish installing chipset driver. It then blue screened on restart.
 
This is the log. Can you make anything of it?
