Windows 10: Laptop keeps crashing with BSOD, signs point to wifi driver

Hey Folks,Got a weird issue here and I am running out of ideas. I setup a Lenovo Ideapad Flex 5 14ALC05 for a new hire and it kept crashing on her every 15 minutes or so. It was originally equipped with Windows 11 but we wiped it and installed windows 10. First BSOD said DP WATCHDOG VIOLATION and DRIVER IRQL NOT LESS OR EQUAL as stop codes. Now it's saying what failed is the rtwlane6.sys driver which is the wifi driver as the main culpritI deleted the driver from device manager and rebooted to reinstall it but issue persists. Installed the one on lenovo's website but issue persists. I updat

Computer keeps crashing and having BSoD.

So I tried the driver verifier, my computer hasn't crashed yet. I did it step by step, and I'm understanding that I need to wait for my computer to crash so I can find out this devious little driver?

Edit: My PC just crashed, but it doesn't give me a BSoD. It simply... Crashes.

 

[SOLVED] Multiple random BSODs, all pointing to the kernel


No BSODs yet but I haven't been playing World of Warcraft which I suspect to be a possible cause.

Was the driver verifier step necessary or just a suggestion?

 

Win7 Pro Laptop crashes when resumes from sleep

Ok almost positive it related to the wifi card/driver. If I disable it in the device manager my laptop sleeps and resumes just fine.

So I guess first step would to be try to find a different driver and if that doesnt work I guess I can replace it. Used mini pci-e wifi cards are pretty cheap.
