Have been fighting a recurring BSOD issue for the past couple of weeks. All appear to point to ntoskrnl.exe and hall.dll, but the BSOD messages vary. Some system files report inaccurate dates (including hal.dll), but actual file size and date match other systems. Previously, sfc/scannow and DISM failed to fix problems. Yesterday system became more unstable, tried a repair install from fresh Windows 10 DVD, appeared to install, but security warning at final boot and then system rolled back. Ran Kaspersky malware scan, system comes up clean. SFCFix will not run.

Yesterday system became unbootable, completely. After several hours working with Bootrec, I was able to get the system running. Previously had tried repairs using DISM and SFC/Scannow which reported corrupt files, but could not repair. SFCFix will not run.
