Hello everyone! I just finished building my PC and it was going well until I started doing regular updates. I was following this tutorial ( 

). 

However, on one of the updates I got a blue screen with the stop code "PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA" followed by "What failed: Netwtw06.sys". Afterwards I could only use my PC 5 mins at a time before I'd get the same screen and it'd restart itself. I can't remember which windows update failed, but I did notice that a lot of people had trouble with it as I found multiple solutions when I searched the code. I restarted my PC while holding the SHIFT key and got to the advanced options under troubleshooting and tried to uninstall my updates. It couldn't uninstall the updates, and I'm not experienced with safe mode so I ended up resetting my PC. I haven't purchased the product key yet as I was planning on doing that afterwards. I haven't tried installing any updates because right now my PC is working  fine after the reset and I don't know what went wrong the first time. 

 

How can I go about updating my PC and setting it up for regular use without causing issues?

 

Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance and I hope you guys are having a better day

I just followed the video. I used a usb drive. Post screen was fine, as was windows before and after I connected to the internet. I even managed to install some of Nvidia drivers. On the second attempt to update, I ran into the issue. I can't remember exactly what it was but it some network update that said 3.5 to 4.0 for Windows. My asus pcie card let me connect to the internet without having to download drivers, so I don't think it was that

Update:

1.)

I decided to try updating windows by just checking for updates and downloading them. This time I had no issues and was able to bring windows 10 up to date. Interestingly enough, no nvidia drivers were shown during regular updates, but was detected by windows because I checked display adapters under device manager. 

2.)

I'm using an ASUS PCE-AC55BT wireless adapter and a GeForce 1660 ti with a Ryzen 3600. From what I can tell, the ASUS wifi adapter uses software from Intel. Not sure if mixing 3 different devices with different parent software has anything to do with it.

3.)

Under Other Devices in Device manager, I have 2 PCI devices that are unregistered and 1 PCI Encryption/Decription Controller.  I've updated both drivers from what I can tell, but I don't know how to be 100% certain.

4.)

Since updating my PC, I've only had one incident where I get "Page fault in nonpaged area" along with "What failed: Netwtw06.sys". I looked it up and most people seem to say it's an intel wireless driver. So it's referring to my ASUS wireless adapter? I've checked multiple times on Intel's driver support website that states I'm up to date. I've double checked the driver for my GPU and it seems to be fine.

5.) My final thoughts are that the unregistered PCI device are what's causing my PC to crash. I don't know what to do because I only have 2 items in PCIe lanes and are up to date. I've tried updating the device manually only to say that the drivers couldn't be found on the internet.

 

Please if anyone has any idea of what is going on, I would greatly appreciate your help and would like to return the favor by helping anyone else out in a similar situation. Thanks for taking your time to read this and I hope you have a great day!
