Blue screen of death... :(

[devildollx]

I have a Dell Inspiron 13-7378 that is running Windows 10. The other day I woke up to see this screen. I cannot get past it no matter what I try.. Any help at all would be soooo appreciated right now...

Do you have access to Windows 10 installation media, or do you have access to another PC where you can download it and set up a flash drive? If so, it's not too difficult to sort this issue.

The Inspiron 13-7378 doesn't have a disc drive, so I'll have to create a usb drive to reboot it with. I've never done this before however.. Any tips?

If you mash the F12 button as soon as you power on, you'll be able to get to the boot device menu and choose the flash drive from there. If this doesn't work, power off the laptop and repeat the process, since sometimes you'll have to do this quickly to get to the menu. Once you do that, this article gives a good walkthrough on how to sort the error you're seeing.
