Unfortunately I had to force a shutdown again...so far, yet so close to a solution. Earlier today a BSOD did return, and as you saw, the WiFi driver / adapter seemed to be the culprit. It bothers me greatly to just throw my arms up and say, "let's just do a complete system re-install", because the problem may not be solved and the next time, I really won't know what to do...so, you guys have been great with all of your expert advice, and I would like to continue trying to solve this problem. I think it will be helpful to others that may be going through the same or similar situations.
So, what's the next step? I will turn off the Verifier after one other hunch I have and will be back. Thanks.
