    BSOD after Win 10 security update KB4041676 or Win 10 Fall Creators


    Hi everyone, I hope someone can assist me.

    I'm having serious troubles since October 16.
    As far as I know, because this computer in troubles is remote, it has been restarting by serious crashes since Microsoft automatically installed the last security update.
    The first time I thought it was caused by faulty hardware and I ran some test but recently after digging, and learning as well, I found that it was related, by the date it starting having BSOD, to a recent security update.
    Since then my computer has been crashing over and over again twice or even more times a day.

    After reading and following the "posting instructions" I already have the crash reports as requested.

    I apologize for my bad English.
    Thanks for your time.
    Regards

    The bios on the computer: BIOS Version/Date American Megatrends Inc. F1, 2/20/2017
    There were bios updates in April, June, August, and September.
    The update can be performed by downloading the latest update:

    GA-AB350M-D3H (rev. 1.0) | Motherboard - GIGABYTE

    The risk, if something goes wrong, a bricked motherboard. That is, if there isn't a backup bios.

    Hello DinoGuy,

    If you are still getting problems have a look to see if updated drivers are available for the Qualcomm Atheros AR9287 Wireless Network Adapter. The current driver athw10x.sys was picked out in the last crash dump.

    Code:

    Hi everyone, thanks for the answers.
    I was out of the city, so sorry for the late reply.

    As a first step I think I'm gonna update all drivers and see if it works.
    Since the computer is remote I think I'm gonna update the BIOS when I have physical access to the PC.

    I still have one question, How do I backup the BIOS before flashing it?

    Regards

    1) Backup the files on the computer to another drive or to the cloud.
    2) Make a backup image with Macrium:
    Macrium Software | Macrium Reflect Free
    3) Place the backup image on another drive or into the cloud.
    4) Create a brand new restore point.
    5) Work on the computer when there is little likelihood of a power outage.
