Hi windowssh blog
I updated my 8.1 Pro laptop to 10 Pro a couple of weeks ago, and so far I really like what I see.
The only nasty bit about W10 so far has been these BSODs happening every once in a while. After the first few I decided I might need to reset my pc, so I followed the instructions found here, except I didn't really fancy removing my files, so I made it keep those.
This was last weekend and throughout this week I think I've had three BSODs. If I remember correctly one was something about a bad header, another about a bad driver and the last was something that wasn't less or equal to something (or at least something along those lines).
I hope you can help me figure out what's causing these errors
I've attached the debug-zip.

Hi kjonas65,
Welcome to the 10blog.
Your wifi and graphics drivers have caused the bluescreens.
Please check your manufacturer for driver updates.

Hi axe0
Thank you for your quick reply. The date of my HD Graphics 4000 driver matches with the one you posted above, but that isn't the case with my wi-fi driver (Broadcom 802.11n-driver says 2nd June 2013 in device management). Am I looking at the wrong driver?

Please check your windows updates history.
I think windows updates has installed a driver that is not meant for your laptop but windows updates thinks it does.
I installed the latest driver from Intel (which turned out to be exactly the same as the one I already had).
I looked at the Broadcom site, but I don't really know which file to download, since they're all named "Linux ..."
I've attached my list of updates from Windows Update, but I don't see anything suspicious in there

Try to install the wifi driver.
Hi again, sorry for the wait
When I try "update driver" in device management, it says I already have the newest one. And I can't find any windows-drivers on the Broadcom website (as mentioned in my earlier post). Do you know where I should look for a new driver?
I also tried Lenovo's support site, but they didn't have any wi-fi drivers for Win10, and the one they had for Win8 is older than mine.
I haven't had any BSODs the last couple of days, so maybe the problem disappeared by itself?

Updating drivers in the device manager isn't the way to update drivers, it will in many cases say that there are no driver updates available.
Updating the graphics driver probably did the trick, I guess the driver would have been corrupted.
With 'try to install the wifi driver' I meant to install the driver from your manufacturer , but if you're not having bluescreens I would leave it.
I'll leave it be a couple of days, and see if any more errors appear
Thanks alot
Keep us posted
