Windows 10: HP 14-ck0065st Laptop blue screen

I was getting blue screen on 1Tb HDD and was advised to switch over to SSD because the drive could crash anytime. So I purchased Samsung 500GB EVO SSD and installed a clean installation and then started copying my passwords and bookmarks and so forth.

It was working fine for about a couple of hours and then I got that same blue screen again. I was trying to install the RTL8811/RTL8812 driver from the Realtek website and after that it just froze and had to force shut it down by using power button. The driver was for the high speed wireless usb adapter. This laptop does not have a cd drive and the wireless adapter only came with a cd.

Since this is a clean install what could be causing this blue screen issues with clean Windows 10 installation? Still did not even get a chance really to browse the internet. I upgraded from 8GB to 16GB RAM and that was recognized immediately. Thought might as well do it since I opened the laptop. What used to take about a minute to boot up the laptop now it was only taking 10 seconds. Is it possible that the wireless adapter is causing the issue all along and it was not even the HDD?

I do have the laptop connected to another LG 27" monitor screen too. That is working well, once it identified it and did not require a driver even though the monitor had a cd too. These settings were used before wireless usb adapter and 27" monitor.

Not sure if this is going to happen again or not. Just wanted to prepare myself for next week so I would not have an issue come Monday for work.


Ok here is an update, tried to update the usb wireless adapter and as soon as I tried to switch over to higher 5Ghz speeds, got same blue screen again.

This time I was able to tale a snapshot of it and attached is an image:




code reads the following:


Stop code DRIVER IRQL NOT LESS OR EQUAL

What failed: rtwlanu.sys

Which of these 14" laptops would you choose [Bought a 14" HP]

I just ordered the 14" HP Pavilion 14-bf001nd
Tweakers

• Intel Core i3-7100U (2.4GHz)
• 6GB ram (1x4 + 1x2.... I might upgrade it in the near future to 2x4GB to run dual channel, if it's already fast enough maybe not though..)
• 256GB M.2 SSD
• 1080p IPS screen
• Backlit keyboard
• Colors silver/gold
• AC Wifi + BT 4.2

I will mainly use it for email/web browsing, Netflix and live TV streaming which shouldn't be a problem with this laptop.
