    The cause is the network drivers.
    It doesn't seem updated for windows 10 looking at the date.
    Code:
    0: kd> lmvm bcmwl63astart             end                 module name
    fffff800`f5500000 fffff800`f5fbc000   bcmwl63a T (no symbols)           
        Loaded symbol image file: bcmwl63a.sys
        Image path: \SystemRoot\system32\DRIVERS\bcmwl63a.sys
        Image name: bcmwl63a.sys

    So after axe0's last observation, I decided to do a wipe the machine, and redo the bare metal install. I happy to say that I have been using the machine for about a week, and no BSOD's.

    So not sure if the issue was indeed was axe0 pointed out or not, but after wiping it clean, and starting over, all seems to be well. Thanks for the help!

    I hope you don't get any trouble anymore with the drivers :)

    Did you try to use Hyper-V? Latest Broadcom 802.11n driver is incompatible with Hyper-V. I had to replace the 7.25.118.40 version (7/24/2015) of bcmwl63a with an older Windows 8.1 version - I used version 6.30.223.215 (12/13/2013).

    Otherwise you'll have BSOD followed by no WiFi connection possible after trying to create a virtual switch.
