Welcome to SevenForums.

Uninstall Spybot and Kaspersky during troubleshooting. (You may install it back if we know they weren't a part of your issue.)

MSE is recommended from a strict BSOD perspective, compatibility & stability compared to other antiviruses/internet security software:-

1. Microsoft Security Essentials - Free Antivirus for Windows
2. Malwarebytes - Free
3. Good and Free system security combination.

Do not start the free trial of Malware Bytes; remember to deselect that option when prompted.

Run a full scan with both (separately) once downloaded, installed and updated.

Then update this driver:

For clarification:

Update this driver: Rt64Win7.sys?

When you say "Search Google for the name of the driver and compare with what's installed on my system". Are you referring to all drivers?

Thank you for the quick reply. I'll try to get to work as soon as I am able.

That's just a method for searching drivers :)
And yes I meant Rt64Win7.sys.
