in bios i don't have sata mode and just have only legacy support in the bios that get's to the startup screen then the BSOD shows the 0x0000007B error. how can i check if my hardware can run windows 7 because it had csm/legacy support in the bios and was capable of running windows 7.i booted from my dvd to 7 setup to repair then went to startup repair but it said that startup repair couldn't repair your pc.then i went to command prompt and typed chkdsk f/ but it said the type of the file system is NTFS Cannot run disk checking on this volume because it is write protected.i'm so close to installing win 7 but i get a blue screen on startup. i don't have sata mode in my bios. pls pls pls more suggestions

From the little research I did in Google, and I am no expert.......
STOP 0x0000007B errors are caused by device driver issues (especially those related to hard drive and other storage controllers), viruses, data corruption, and sometimes even hardware failures.
My guess because your model lists as a Windows 10 device, you do not have driver support for Windows 7.
