Hello, I'm experiencing an issue with an infinite BSOD loop on startup. It will load up like normal, then the BSOD will pop up for half a second, and the process will continue. Before this happened, I was modding my Skyrim game using the nexus mod manager. I remember activating a 2GB Mod, it getting about halfway through the process, then the computer crashing. From that point on, was when the loop started happening. PC specs can be provided if necessary, but for now I am typing this on an iPad. Thank you in advance for your time and consideration.

First step is to always try reseting the CMOS by powering off the computer, removing the power cord to the pc and popping out the CMOS battery (the flat round one) and leaving it out for 10 seconds, then popping it back in and trying to power on the system.

Thank you for your speedy response, however I am having trouble locating the CMOS battery. I do not know if I can attach a picture on an iPad. Sorry if I seem uncooperative.
