Blue Screen in windows is caused for a lot of reasons. In relation to the hdd, it may occur when the OS tries to read some important file ( the registry, some dll, etc ) and it fails, or reads partially, then the OS "bluescreens" to protect the rest of the system.

New windows versions ( 7, 8, 10 ) will try to read parts of the bad hdd and hang/blue screen as you saw. If you need to access it, use a windows XP installation, and refuse if prompted to run chkdsk . A linux boot disk could also be used.

Of course, it all depends on what is the problem with the hdd. If it is just something logical ( corrupt partition, for example ) you can read it. If it is something physical ( bad heads, defective board ) then results may vary.

i don't need data.

i think hdd origin of blue screen is because of electrical problem.

it is in any operating system. XP, 7 i tried it.

also i try different PCB. but it's useless. drive have many bad sectors. RSC is very high.
maybe it head fatigue?

just want to know.
