    The .nfo file is corrupted.

    Please upload your msinfo32.nfo file. To get this: Start Menu -> Type msinfo32 into the Search programs and files box -> When it opens, go to File, Save -> Save as msinfo32.nfo and save in a place you will remember -> Let it finish the process of gathering and saving the system info -> Right click the .nfo file, click send to compressed (zipped) folder -> Upload the .zip file here.

    Please upload your msinfo32.txt file. To get this: Start Menu -> Type msinfo32 into the Search programs and files box -> When it opens, go to File, Export -> Save as msinfo32.txt and save in a place you will remember -> Let it finish the process of gathering and saving the system info -> Right click the .txt file, click send to compressed (zipped) folder -> Upload the .zip file here.

    UPDATE THIS DRIVER:

    i have uploaded the requested files in the attachments below and i will provide further update on the device driver of atheros
    edit: i uninstalled the atheros wireless driver and restarted the computer and it booted successfully and windows re-installed the driver automatically and then i updated the driver
    and then i re-started the computer again,,,it didn't throw the bsod this time, i don't know if the problem is fixed or not, i want to confirm, are there any information or logs i have to provide again? if so then let me know

    Hmm yup.
    Comodo can block internet access sometimes..also causes BSODs.
