Windows 10: BSOD issue: DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL (nwifi.sys)

Hi friends,
I have recently been having a BSOD problem with my computer (Acer Aspire V3-372, 64-bit, Windows 10). This seems to happen especially when I'm at school connected with with the school wifi, and the BSOD screen reads "driver irql_not_less_or_equal (nwifi.sys)". I'm not sure what's causing this problem, but it has bugged me since late last year, and has recently happened again. I hope you awesome guys out there can help me with my issue.
The required DMP files are attached as SadComputer-0001.zip, thank you so much for your time and assistance

Sincerely,

Hello,

I have recently been experiencing a BSOD with the nwifi.sys failure and the stop code DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL. I have attached the minidump files as well at the end of this post.

Thanks for your time.

Just wait until you get another BSOD.

Dear Philc43,

Thank you so much for your help! Im not sure how to update the intel serial input/output host controller - I can't seem to find the update link. Could you kindly walk me through it?

Kind regards

 

Try the Automatically update your drivers link on the Intel web site, see if it finds a driver for you.

I did find this luink on the Intel site: Download Serial IO: Intel(R) Serial IO Driver for Windows(R) 10

 

Dear Ztruker,

Thanks! the link worked *Smile

Your welcome, glad it helped.
