Windows 10 Blue Screen of Death

Hopefully, someone can help me figure this out. I picked up a new desktop from Dell. Reformatted the guest installation with Windows 10 Pro Insider Build only cause I had a legal key to use it as I been testing the new build's for months now. The system was working fine for weeks and I didn't install any crazy apps, Windows, Office, and my printer driver. Today I power up the pc and boom, blue screen of death.

"Your Windows Insider Build ran into a problem and needs to restart. You can restart.
Stop Code: 0xc000021a"

I tried for a long time to fix it by booting to the command window and running a series of bcd commands to rebuild the boot sector. There is nothing wrong with the hard drive as I just installed a new SSD last month.

After a while, I took the SSD out, put it into my hdd caddy, backed up all the data and reinstalled Windows 10 again.

Sorry for the long-winded story. I hope I'm not the only one who has seen this crazy message. Does anyone know how to fix it. It's been driving me mad all day that if occurs again, I will have to reinstall the OS again and again.

Here is a link to the message. After the crash, I downloaded a new clean ISO of Windows 10 (non-preview) using the media creator tool directly from Microsoft. If it happens again, I'm considering going back to Windows 7. Thanks.

Post your question in the Windows Forums. I cannot make out the stop code. One possibility would be a USB device as the cause. I have had to remove a USB 3.0 device to get some of the previews to work.
 
Uhh, "Insider Build", and you're wondering why it's crashing?

Sounds like the same thing as the guy that goes to the doctor, "Every time I hit myself with a ball-peen hammer, it hurts!". Doctor says, "...then don't do that."

Insider Builds are NOT meant for Production machines. I shouldn't have to tell you that, it should be common sense. Even Production-tested Windows versions are buggy enough.

I was in the insider program until I got the version that was to be the FCU . I decided that is was good enough for what I wanted and cancelled further new builds.
