    Trying to do a clean install of W7, won't boot, BSOD about drivers


    Hi all

    I posted this thread about my issue with my boyfriend's computer showing a BSOD with a Nvlddmkm.sys error.

    Apparently his version of Windows 7 wasn't legit, so we purchased a legitimate version on a CD/DVD. I'm trying to do a clean install, but I can't do anything. It gets caught in a start-up loop, and the BSOD comes up when I try to "start Windows normally". It seems to be okay in safe mode.

    I'm also having trouble trying to get his computer to boot from a disc. I'm not sure what to do at this point, but I think the first thing would be to get this real version of Windows working so I can get some help

    Hope to get some advice from you all. Thanks for reading.

    Okay, sorry to add-on to this, but I managed to get Windows 7 installed and it wiped everything, including network drivers.

    I'm missing some ethernet/network drivers and I'm not sure where to go from here or what this means. This is new to me, so bear with me

    From the Ethernet Controller, I'm missing:
    PCI\VEN_10EC&DEV_8168&SUBSYS_E0001458&REV_06
    PCI\VEN_10EC&DEV_8168&SUBSYS_E0001458
    PCI\VEN_10EC&DEV_8168&CC_020000
    PCI\VEN_10EC&DEV_8168&CC_0200

    From Network Controller, I'm missing:
    PCI\VEN_168C&DEV_0023&SUBSYS_3071168C&REV_01
    PCI\VEN_168C&DEV_0023&SUBSYS_3071168C
    PCI\VEN_168C&DEV_0023&CC_028000
    PCI\VEN_168C&DEV_0023&CC_0280

    I've tried Googling the above, but I'm taken to weird Russian websites.

    The hardware is TP-LINK 300Mbps Advanced Wireless N PCI Adapter. I think there is still an issue with the graphics card because there is still a thin blue line appearing on the monitor even after the wipe.
