I'm struggling to get help on Reddit after my account was abandoned. I found a discussion about a similar problem, but the original poster gave up before finishing. I was trying to fix a Samsung monitor that kept flickering by downloading drivers, thinking it might be the issue. After cleaning my PC, I downloaded some AMD software and ended up getting stuck in a blue screen loop. The error codes showed up as BAD_POOL_CALLER, KERNEL_MODE_HEAP_CORRUPTION AND IRQL_DRIVER_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL. I reset the C: drivers but Windows didn’t complete setup, so I can’t proceed further. I don’t remember my admin password and can’t recover it. My system runs an AMD Ryzen CPU with a GeForce 1060 GTX and is using Windows 10. I can share pictures if that helps.

Are you referring to a GPU instead of a CPU? You'll need to reinstall Windows, regrettably.

Could you try using a CD to boot your PC? I prefer keeping my system old with a physical CD drive.

If you're still open to it, keep going with the idea. Just make sure you've got that old-school reader who loves spinning disks!

I received the details now. The problem is about reinstalling while in recovery mode.

When the computer starts, press the key to access the BIOS, then navigate to the dics reader under boot options and choose it.
