Wireless Adapter is causing my pc to crash

Please note the importance/priority in fixing:
1) the bios
2) backing up your files (pending the evaluation of the drive)




Open administrative command prompt and type or copy and paste:

1) sfc /scannow

2) dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth

3) When these have completed > right click on the top bar or title bar of the administrative command prompt box > left click on edit then select all > right click on the top bar again > left click on edit then copy > paste into the thread

4) Make sure that there is no over clocking while troubleshooting.

5) Sometimes there are problems in the bios that produce bsod.

The BIOS: Version/Date American Megatrends Inc. V22.4, 12/21/2015


6) Please check to see if this is the most up to date version.

7) To ensure that there are no improper bios settings please reset the bios.

8) Sometimes there can be failure to boot after resetting the bios.

9) So please make sure your files are backed up.

10) Please make a backup image with Macrium:

Macrium Software | Macrium Reflect Free:
Macrium Software | Your Image is Everything

11) And please create a brand new restore point.

12) When testing for WHEA hardware errors we need to systematically check CPU, GPU, memory and drive.

Some testing was already done but there may have been overclocking and there were no images posted in the thread.

Once the bios is reset and there is no overclocking:

13) Choose one of the temperature monitoring software applications: Speecy, HW monitor, Speed fan:

Speccy - Free Download - Piriform: Speccy - System Information - Free Download

HWMONITOR | Softwares | CPUID: HWMONITOR | Softwares | CPUID

SpeedFan - Access temperature sensor in your computer: SpeedFan - Access temperature sensor in your computer


14) Run Prime95 - Stress Test Your CPU

Prime95 - Stress Test Your CPU Windows 10 Performance Maintenance Tutorials

15) Record maximum temperatures and duration of testing.

16) Please use the Microsoft snipping tool to post images into the thread.

17) Run memtest86+ version 5.01 for at least 8 passes.

This may take hours so plan to run it overnight.

Please make sure you use the Memtest86+ version 5.01 with the link below.

The testing is done not by time but by passes.

The more passes the better.

There are a significant number of false negatives if fewer than 8 passes are made.

A false negative is a pass when there is malfunctioning RAM.

There is 16 GB of RAM on the computer.

Memtest86+ version 5.01 testing takes approximately 1 - 2 hours /GB RAM

Just 1 error is a fail and you can abort testing.

Then test 1 RAM module at a time in the same DIMM each for 8 or more passes.

Again the more passes the better.

If both RAM pass when tested 1 at a time after failing when tested together test the next DIMM with 1 RAM module for 8 or more passes. This will help to differentiate malfunctioning RAM from malfunctioning DIMM /Motherboard.

18) When Memtest86+ has completed 8 or more passes use a camera or smart phone camera to take a picture and post an image of the results to post into the thread.

MemTest86+ - Test RAM Windows 10 BSOD Tutorials

MemTest86+ needs to be run for at least 8 complete passes for conclusive results.

19) Run HD Sentinel:

Hard Disk Sentinel - HDD health and temperature monitoring

When it has completed please use the Microsoft snipping to make images and post them into the thread.

20) Run FurMark - GPU Stress Test Windows 10 Performance Maintenance Tutorials

Please make note of the importance of temperature monitoring and aborting the test in the GPU link.

FurMark - GPU Stress Test Windows 10 Performance Maintenance Tutorials:
FurMark - GPU Stress Test Windows 10 Performance Maintenance Tutorials

21) All of these test should be done with the bios reset and no over clocking.

22) For each of the above tests please record maximum temperatures.

24) And please make sure that you use the Microsoft snipping tool to post images of each into the thread.

23) Please update the information on the computer specifications:

Ten Forums System Specificiations (Specs)

Please fill in your system specs

Please follow this tutorial and download the tool.

System Info - See Your System Specs - Windows 7 Help Forums

The tool will give you detailed information about your system specs, please fill in your system specs more completely including PSU, cooling, case, and other used stuff like mouse, keyboard, joystick, xbox, headphone, printer, etc.

The PSU, cooling and other stuff are NOT mentioned in the tool.

In the left corner below in your post you find 'My System Specs'.

After clicking it you can find a link a little below that says 'Update your System Spec', click on this link to get to the page where you can fill in your system specs.


24) Open administrative command prompt and type or copy and paste: chkdsk /x /f /r
This may take many hours to run so plan to run it overnight.
25) Post the chkdsk results into the thread:

There were 2 misbehaving hardware drivers identified in the bsod debugging: rtwlanu.sys and nvlddmkm.sys
There was 1 bsod that indicated a 0x124 WHEA error which is often a hardware problem.

For RTWLANU.SYS (Realtek Wireless LAN or TP-LINK Wireless USB Adapter)
Find an up to date drive from the Realtek website: Realtek
Uninstall using device manager

For NVLDDMKM.SYS (Nvidia video driver)

The best way to fix the misbehaving Nvidia driver is to uninstall everything Nvidia using Display driver uninstaller and install new drivers from the computer manufacturer's website or from the Nvidia website.


The computer manufacturer's web site is preferred. Enter the computer's serial or product number and the operating system to view available drivers.


If you use the Nvidia web site be sure the "clean install" box is checked and only install the graphics driver and the physx driver.
