Hi!
My computer bsods since I got it. A friend of mine built it.
I did not tell him my problem, but if it persists I think I'll tell him. If you can help me solve the following problems by myself, I'll be glad, since he's a selfish and he'll, of course, want money because he didn't built my PC...

OK. I just built a new computer last month. Did the usuals. SSD for boot drive. 4TB worth of storage so little more than Win 7 on the boot drive. If the Win 10 upgrade hoses the boot drive it's no big deal to start again. Everything important is already on other drives.
