Did I kill my pc too

[MrLittle]

I've had my laptop for yrs now and it's been fine for months now.   

 

Well Sunday night I turned off the PC by pressing and holding the case power button down in windows 10 something I've done many times to this PC, though not "often".  When I went to turn it on last night I get a BSOD when Win10 goes to load.  The blue logo comes up, the circle spins once or twice, then BSOD!  Great!

 

I reset the BIOS to defaults, still get BSOD trying to load Win10.  I clear the CMOS....still BSOD trying to load Win10.  Now here's the scary part to me, I try to boot up the Win10 Install USB I have and I get a BSOD just trying to load that!  So I can't even reformat it now!

 

I setup my old PC to download and make a Ubuntu bootable USB.  I put that into my current PC and try to boot it up and.....I get an error and it won't boot!  Below is the error I get:

 

Kernal panic - not syncing: Timeout: Not all CPUs entered broadcast exception handler
Shutting down cpus with NMI

 

So yeah, I'm out of ideas here!  Did I break my cpu somehow?  Can't get it to boot into anything other than the BIOS.  I'm open to trying anything else to try and fix it if possible.  Any and all help is appreciated!

Sounds like a bad stick of memory.

But I could boot into BIOS and choose windows is ,and it's stops after 5-6 spins

BSOD are almost memory error related be it a driver or the hardware it's self.

 

From the Linux description error, it sounds like a bad stick of memory.

 

This diagnoses in part by a working system before a power off... is a hardware related issue unless you had shut down to restart the PC due to a driver update of some sort.
