NetBT 4311 Error causing new computer to restart

Hi there,

Recently built my first PC and I have been getting the following two 4311 NetBT errors which causes my PC to restart, this happens only when playing Valorant.

Windows 10 64 bit

Initialization failed because the driver device could not be created. Use the string "000000000100320000000000D71000C013010000250200C000000000000000000000000000000000" to identify the interface for which initialization failed. It represents the MAC address
of the failed interface or the Globally Unique Interface Identifier (GUID) if NetBT was unable to map from GUID to MAC address. If neither the MAC address nor the GUID were available, the string represents a cluster device name.

I really have no idea what this means and trying to Google a fix has lead me nowhere. Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you

 

Two error NetBT ID 4300

Is there a solution?
Thank you[/QUOTE]

Yes, when you boot into W 10, when restarting for whatever reason do not switch OS's. If you boot to W 10 and you wish to restart, restart always to W 10 and when you are done, shutdown W 10. Same for W 7. After a shutdown, boot again to any OS you like. Also, when you see the Boot Manager screen, if you boot to W 10 let it run automatically, after 30 seconds. If you want to boot to W 7 monitor the HDD led light and when it finishes flashing, click on W 7 icon to enter W 7 OS. Usually, it takes 15-20 secs for the led light to finish flashing. If you do it before, and while Boot manager still loads, you will get such NetBT events, they are usually harmless but if you want not to see such events in Event Viewer, follow each time the procedure described above. I'm doing the same each time, and never had NetBT events.
I'm also assuming that you have Fast Startup disabled under W 10 but if you don't please disable it.

Cheers,
