Hello,

For a while now, I've been getting this blue screen that appears during startup. The computer reboots, and once it's launched, there are no more problems until I turn it back on the next day.

When I run an analysis via Whocrashed, I get the same message every time 

On Mon 23/02/2015 08:42:58 GMT your computer crashed
crash dump file: C:\Windows\Minidump\022315-5765-01.dmp
This was probably caused by the following module: ntoskrnl.exe (nt+0x1509A0) 
Bugcheck code: 0xD1 (0x0, 0x2, 0x8, 0x0)
Error: DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL
file path: C:\Windows\system32\ntoskrnl.exe
product: Microsoft® Windows® Operating System
company: Microsoft Corporation
description: NT Kernel & System
Bug check description: This indicates that a kernel-mode driver attempted to access pageable memory at a process IRQL that was too high.
This appears to be a typical software driver bug and is not likely to be caused by a hardware problem. 
The crash took place in the Windows kernel. Possibly this problem is caused by another driver that cannot be identified at this time.


Thanks for your help!

      Yes, that's fine.
      You have a problem with your Wi-Fi card driver.

        I updated the driver, turned off the computer, then rebooted, and the problem is indeed gone.

        Thank you very much for the help!
