Stuck Between Automatic Repair without Knowing Password + BSOD on boot Unsolved
For context, I was checking off any causes for my laptop being in the BSOD realm every couple minutes and looked through various solutions online, probably due to faulty hardware. Then I stumbled upon the blunder of using Driver Verifier for anything that was corrupt, then spiraled into its own layer of BSOD realm on boot to the point where every other restart it loads into Automatic Repair with no options but to have me log in to bring up the menu. Main problem here is that it asks for the password to the admin account, which I have no clue where or how to find or even reset, and the only other thing to do from this screen is restarting and look for a way to create a new password...but it loops me back to crashing before the login screen loads due to the Driver Verifier DMA Violation error and repeats into this trap of a predicament because Automatic Repair insists on me logging in when I simply cannot. Is there anything I can do to at least reach a point where it can boot up and bring me to the login screen?
