SYSTEM_THREAD_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED_M (1000007e)
This is a very common bugcheck.  Usually the exception address pinpoints
the driver/function that caused the problem.  Always note this address
as well as the link date of the driver/image that contains this address.
Some common problems are exception code 0x80000003.  This means a hard
coded breakpoint or assertion was hit, but this system was booted
/NODEBUG.  This is not supposed to happen as developers should never have
hardcoded breakpoints in retail code, but ...
If this happens, make sure a debugger gets connected, and the
system is booted /DEBUG.  This will let us see why this breakpoint is
happening.
Arguments:
Arg1: ffffffffc0000420, The exception code that was not handled
Arg2: fffff80003c1a2da, The address that the exception occurred at
Arg3: fffff88003b9a478, Exception Record Address
Arg4: fffff88003b99cd0, Context Record Address

Reason to blue screen: In simple words when bad driver (not compatible with your hardware/os or buggy) loads; it try to overwrite or access to the core os section in the memory and result become blue screen error.

To tackle this problem you have to uninstall driver if you can access the windows in safe mode or if you can't access windows in safe mode then try to restore it to latest restore point

Thank you to all of you who posted your suggestions. The issue is most likely related to a problem with the laptop power button. It has been intermittently not working. I will be shipping my laptop to Dell for repair (to the tune of @ $300.00). Thanks again.
