Possible Fix for BAD_SYSTEM_CONFIG_INFO 75736e6a726e6c2e 500

 Today I woke up to this error on a Dell Precision 3541 Laptop. For some reason it was asking for the Bitlocker Key.

After entering the key, received the following error on boot up

BAD_SYSTEM_CONFIG_INFO

After searching around I was advised to start here 

chkdsk C: /f /r /x

It did showed 1 bad file cluster that was fixed.

However, we  ran into another error. 

"unspecified error 75736e6a726e6c2e 500

Somewhere a user advised to simple run chkdsk C: /r  again.  (a user in reference #3)

That I did, and this time it ran without error and the issues was resolved.

The PC booted without any issue.
