Windows 10 unexpected kernal mode trap bsod debugging
So I'm running Windows 10 dual boot with Manjaro on an HP Probook G1 650, and for the longest time, I've been having a reoccurring blue screen of death. I've done some debugging myself, but I'm stuck and don't know what else to try.
It's always an "unexpected kernel mode trap error", and it specifies which driver goes wrong. For the most part, it's netwbw02.sys that fails, but on occasion, it will loop bsod w/o booting and a different driver, ndis.sys or wpprecorder.sys is cited. The bsod appears just a few minutes after booting, even when I just leave it running.
I have tried disk check, memory check, system file checker, all of which returned nothing found. My windows is updated to the most recent version, and I've gone through and made sure each driver has been updated. Additionally, in safe mode, the blue screen only occurs in safe mode w/ networking, and even then only when I connect to wifi.
Any help would be appreciated. thx in advance

ndis.sys is a network driver, so maybe a service that uses it doesn't start when it should, or stops right after starting and causes the BSODs. wpprecorder.sys is in charge of checking for habitual WiFi networks SSIDs, and to connect to them in order of preference, more often than not automatically, if you checked that box on first connection.
If both those drivers don't load in memory as they should, you're likely to experience connection issues, but not necessarily a BSOD, though.
Can you check in your services.msc if WLAN auto config service is set to full automatic (not delayed start)? If not, set it so and see how it goes.
