You can follow bellow instructions if the BSoD error cause by buggy driver or software.

Try booting into Safe Mode if you can use the System Restore tool to restore Windows 7 to a working date.

You can also use the System Restore tool from Windows Setup Media and from Windows Recovery Environment.

Windows Vista/ 7/8/8.1 keep a regular backup of the registry handy in case you need to overwrite a corrupted registry. By default, the RegIdleBackup task runs every 10 days, so that’s as far back as you would lose if you replaced the current registry with the automatically backed-up files. You can find the backed-up registry files in \Windows\System32\config\RegBack folder.



Please boot your computer with Windows Setup Media and from Windows Recovery Environment start the Command Prompt.


Please type the below command into Command Prompt and press the Enter key.


Code: 
 Dir C:\Windows\System32\config\RegBack



Above command will list files stored within RegBack folder and their file size, make sure files are not zero size if they are not, follow below instructions.

Please replace partition letter C: with Windows installed partition letter. When computer boots into Windows Recovery Environment (WinRE) environment, the drive letter assign to Windows partition may not be C: drive letter because Windows 7, 8 , 8.1 and 10 creates a separate system partition when it's installed from scratch. The system partition contains boot files WinRE assigns the system partition the C: drive letter and the Windows installed partition will be assigned any other drive letter, usually D: drive letter is assign to Windows installed partition. The Bcdedit | find "osdevice" command can be used to find out the drive letter of the Windows installed partition, the output of the Bcdedit command is similar to this osdevice partition=D:. The drive letter after partition= is the drive letter of the Windows partition.


Please type the bellow commands into Command Prompt and for each command you have typed press the Enter key.




Code: 
Replace C:\Windows\System32\Config\RegBack\*     C:\Windows\System32\Config


As files are replaced, the Command Prompt displays their filenames on the screen.


This procedure assumes that Windows Vista/7/8/8.1 is installed to the C:\ partition. Make sure to replace C:\ drive letter to the appropriate Windows OS installed partition drive letter if it is a different location.



The above commands rename the registry files at their existing location, and then copies the registry files from the RegBack folder to the C:\Windows\System32\Config folder.
 
Why did you open two threads, you should have just posted all this information at your first thread, anyhow checkout your first thread.

Can you boot Windows 7 into Safe Mode using F8 key?


To check if you have System Recovery Options installed, follow these following steps:


  1. Restart the computer
  2. As soon as your computer stars, press the F8 key before the Windows logo appears
  3. When the Advanced Boot Options menu appears, check if you have a Repair your computer option listed:
  4. To continue, select Repair your computer and press Enter

From Advanced Boot Options menu also select "Last known good configuration (advanced)" option and click Enter key.

Try below link to download Windows 7 ISO.



Windows 7 All in One ISO
 
It is this?
System cannot find the path

Replaced C with X but it doesn't recognize it

@Supernova you are not following my instructions at my post 3. You will need to found the correct drive letter for the Windows 7 installed partition and use that drive letter with all your folder path command.

After each line i m getting this message :
''The process cannot access the file because it is being used by someone else process''
''0 file(s) copied''

I did paste all at once.Shall i paste + enter each separate?
I did it in Safe mode with network connection.Shall i do it in boot menu (F8 menu) ?
 
These commands work from Windows 7 Recovery Environment.

These commands need to be executed it one at a time.

You can boot into Windows 7 using Safe Mode, have you tried System Restore tool?

Boot your Windows 7 into Safe Mode and post BSoD memory dump files stored within C:\Windows\MiniDump folder.
