BSOD Nwifi.sys

[Creed1]

So a couple of weeks ago I tried uninstall Oracle Virtual Box. I tried 6 times and kept getting a BSOD about Nwifi.sys. The last time it finally worked. Now today I noticed my PC was performing terribly. I had high CPU usage on my System Process. So I immediately thought of it as a driver issue. So I read online that disabling your wifi card may fix it. Well I disabled it and sure enough, Nwifi.sys BSOD. I am really lost, any help?

Try disabling it in the BIOS if you can, or disable it if you have a switch for it on your computer (more common on laptops). You may want to try and uninstall your Wifi drivers and reinstall the latest ones to see if that fixes it. It could also be another driver that has a conflict so you can try to uninstall and reinstall other drivers like chipset, LAN, audio, graphics etc...

 

Or it may just be time for a Windows reinstall, but that can be a pain so try the other stuff first.

Fixed! Uninstalled the driver via device manager. It did crash while uninstalling it, but system process usage is now low and the wifi is still good. I did install a new network driver recently so probably something to do with that

That's great! Glad it's working! You might want to try install the latest Wifi driver though for better Wifi performance but it might crash again so it's your call, if it is working fine now then I say just leave it, you could always try though.
