Windows 10: BSOD when using wifi

Hi,


I have recently built a PC and I am having BSOD issues when downloading, streaming, etc basically anything that requires a continuous period of heavy network usage.


I generally get the error code CLOCK_WATCHDOG_TIMEOUT, but occasionally DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION. I have tried /chkdsk and running memtest and both reported no issues.


When using bluescreenview I get these data sets.


If it is CLOCK_WATCHDOG_TIMEOUT:

022420-6890-01.dmp 24/02/2020 00:56:23 0x0000010100000000`00000010 00000000`00000000 ffffc201`f3a5718000000000`00000004 ntoskrnl.exe ntoskrnl.exe+39d860x64 ntoskrnl.exe+39d860 C:\WINDOWS\Minidump\022420-6890-01.dmp12 15 19041 1,040,940 24/02/2020 00:57:33




If it is DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION:

022420-6593-01.dmp 24/02/2020 10:25:47 0x00000133 00000000`00000000 00000000`00000501 00000000`00000500 fffff803`2b2fb318 ntoskrnl.exe ntoskrnl.exe+39d860 x64 ntoskrnl.exe+39d860 C:\WINDOWS\Minidump\022420-6593-01.dmp 12 15 19041 4,484,348 24/02/2020 10:30:26


I have tried reinstalling drivers for everything I can find updates for, reset Windows, and updated the BIOS. My WIFI card is a Gigabyte GC-WB1733D-I, and I didn't seem to have any issues before installing it I used USB tethering to my phone for the first couple of days since I needed to order a PCI-e riser to fit the wifi card.


Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Random BSOD while browsing internet


BitDefender is nothing special. mwac.sys causes BSODs anywhere.
A tiny documentation can be found here: Solved Random BSODs - Windows 10 Forums
In that very thread, the suggested action apparently worked.

The storage and network filters of any third party antivirus can cause BSODs. Neither MBAM nor BitDefender is any special. For a regular antivirus, it may be shifted to an alternative; but MBAM has no alternative. So a clean install of the said program is the most feasible first step.
As far as the first step is not failing, it is better to not think for the second step. Because the BSODs are not universal, failure at the first step is not universal; and success at the second step is also not universal.
That is why I posted that my suggestion may work, or may not. Let us see where it goes.

 

Windows 10 wifi not turning on Acer Aspire laptop

In order to get the list of available wireless networks, you have to:

1. Switch on Connect to suggested open hotspots (see the screenshot in question);
   
2. Click on Wifi icon in the right corner. Now you have your networks back.
   

After that the parameter from Step 1 can be turned off, networks will be listed normally after restarting Wifi.

P.S. I feel rather stupid at the moment. I thought that open hotspots are passwordless hotspots and so are presumably not very safe. So of course I've turned that off during installation.
Really hard to see any logic in this case.

 

7 different BSoD

Hey guys,

I have a serious problem. I make it as short as possible:

• system runs 100 % fine with the 10.12
• updatet to Catalyst 11.1 -> BSoD
• updatet to 11.1 Hotfix -> BSoD
• rollback to 10.12 -> BSoD
• removed ALL AMD files manually, installed 10.12 -> BSoD

• Temps are fine
• no sfc /scannow errors
• no chkdsk errors
• Prime, Furmark all fine
• regardless what driver I install -> BSoD
• I did no hw changes, no OC

Here are my BSoDs I receive:

• 0x0000010e
• 0x1000007e
• 0x0000007e
• 0x0000004e
• 0x0000003b
• dxgmms1.sys
• PFN_LIST_CORRUPT

They all refer to the GPU of course ...

From now on I receive a BSoD every time I try to play a game (especially BC2 and SC II) even if I completely remove the old driver and make a clean install.
Apparently the 11.1 damaged my system irreparable.

Any advice or info would be very much appreciated *Smile
