I tried to reproduce the stand-by issue but it quickly reconnected to WiFi and the problem (BSOD) didn't show up. It would be interesting to put the laptop to sleep on purpose, to see if I can reproduce the BSOD, but I'm not a fan of those and I prefer my file-system intact - unless you advise me to give it a shot and before I do I'll make sure to have everything closed, so no running app would be affected. I booted Windows again, the network connected quickly, I grabbed the dump files, wrote this post, nothing went wrong. While I was trying to collect the dump files, without a network/internet connection up and running, a new BSOD occured.Р”Тђ.

Coming out of the stand-by, before it could get a network connection and internet, a BSOD happened.Р”В¤.

Uninstalled old drivers, installed new ones, ran the laptop for about 4 hours, downloaded an update and a 1.6 GB Steam game successfully.Р”Р€. So if I remember correctly, the same thing happened before (old driver) but I just didn't make a note of the context.Р”В«y the way, I wrote this post after the second BSOD today, after I secured the dump files attached to this post.Р”РЋ. And I think the BSOD happened after the laptop entered stand-by. So it looks like the BSOD happened sometime between the boot/resume and a successful connection to the network.Р”В¬ome to think of it, when I first installed and tried the new WiFi card I had a big download (about 5 GB) and I just let the laptop do its thing while it worked on it. I also don't remember seeing a notication from the connection utility after the first BSOD.

I booted back to Windows, logged in and the Intel network utility pop-up said it connected to wifi. It always downloads the update in advance and it prompts the user to update after the next start, so no internet was necessary for the update, which I hope it went well before the second BSOD happened.) I think it was not yet connected to wifi while that happened but I'm not 100% sure - I just remember that the network connection systray icon displayed either 'no internet' (exclamation mark) or 'no connection' (red X cross). (I don't know if it's relevant but the Steam client auto-started and wanted to update itself. I got back in Windows, I tried to grab the dump files, but before I could do that, another BSOD happened. I woke it back up, I entered the password and a few seconds after that, the BSOD happened. And I kept it awake for almost 2 hours before I forgot to move the mouse and it went in stand-by. I had something else to do on my desktop PC and I kept moving the mouse on my laptop so it won't go in stand-by, because I'd have to enter the password again. However, this time I might have some valuable info. I was about to make a joke about the game's title but then the BSOD happened again. I installed an update through Windows Updates, I downloaded a 1.6 GB game from Steam (Crash Time II ) and I was happy everything went well.

Catching up after the vacation took more time than I hoped but I plugged the new WiFi module back in and tested it after I removed the previous driver and put the new one in place.
