Blue Screen Of Death

Question

My computer has had 8 BSOD since July 24, 2026.

(It has been going on longer then the 24th)

The cause, wdi.wifi.sys

I did an internet search on how to repair it.

But the information is beyond my understanding of computers.

Besides that, if I try the probiblity of messing up at some point is high.

Is there anyone that could help me?

Hi ,

Search for msinfo32.exe in the search bar, take a screenshot, and post it here so we can see the correct laptop model or desktop configuration.

Access the c:\windows\minidump folder, copy the files to your desktop, then upload them to OneDrive or Google Drive and post the link here for analysis.

Thanks

Yes. Since the crashes point to a Wi‑Fi driver, start with the standard Windows blue screen steps and focus on the wireless device driver.

1. Start in Safe Mode.
   • This helps if normal startup is unstable.
   • From Safe Mode, continue with the steps below.
2. Open Device Manager.
   • Right-click Start > Device Manager.
   • Look for the Wi‑Fi adapter under Network adapters.
   • If any device has an exclamation mark, that is a strong sign of a driver problem.
3. Update the Wi‑Fi driver.
   • In Device Manager, right-click the Wi‑Fi adapter and select Update driver.
   • If Windows offers a newer driver, install it and restart.
4. If updating does not help, disable or uninstall the Wi‑Fi device in Device Manager.
   • This is one of the recommended blue screen troubleshooting steps when a device driver is involved.
   • If uninstalling, restart Windows so the device can be detected again.
5. Make sure there is enough free disk space.
   • Windows recommends having about 10% to 15% free space available.
6. Install the latest Windows 10 updates.
   • Go to Start > Settings > Update & Security > Windows Update > Check for Windows updates.
7. Run the System File Checker.
   • This can check for corrupted Windows system files.
   • Use the steps in the System File Checker article.
8. If the problem started after a recent change, use System Restore.
   • This is useful if a driver, app, or update was installed before the BSODs began.
9. If the crashes continue, use Recovery options in Windows.
   • Options include restore, repair, reset, or reinstall.
   • Warning: reset or reinstall can remove apps or data depending on the option chosen.

There is also a known Windows 7 / Windows Server 2008 R2 stop error related to certain Wi‑Fi drivers, but that hotfix information does not apply to Windows 10 home systems.
