If it is a blue screen, please provide a photo of that screen.

I am Dave, I will help you with this.
Are you able to boot into Safe Mode using this method, and if you can, is Windows stable in Safe Mode?
Start your PC, just as Windows attempts to load (spinning dots), press and hold Power Button for 5 - 10 seconds to perform a Hard Shut Down
Do this twice
On the third start Windows will boot into the Recovery Environment and from there you can access System Repair, Safe Mode, Command Prompt... etc.
Go to Troubleshoot - Advanced Option - Startup Settings and click Restart
Upon restart, press 5 to enter Safe Mode
