    First off, I can't identify each individually, but when I had it there were two USB devices, Logitech EX100 USB receiver and a wifi stick. Other times, there's another Microsoft Keyboard and mouse 800 receiver, MS webcam, phone dock, and a Seagate HDD.
    The Catalyst Unistaller asked for credentials i didn't have, so I used Revo Unistaller but there was no AMD software to unistall.
    I ran the driver uninstaller which did its stuff.
    No the ethernet is never used, always using a wifi USB stick.
    Finally, could clarify which driver you want me to install for the ethernet and wifi usb?

    Thanks
    Tom

    Edit:
    I think I found the Realtek drivers you we're talking about,the main problem is that I can't download them as the download speed slowly grinds to a halt, no matter what mirror I use. Also, the wifi stick isn't by Realtek, its by a company called Add-on, and the drivers for that came on a CD. BTW, the product name is the ADD-NWU271 802.11n Wireless USB Adapter.

    I take it that the driver remained intact?

    If this is the case, disable the adapter via the network center.

    Srat > type > network connections then press enter > Find the adapter Right-click > Disable.

    OK leave the Ethernet driver for now worst case scenario we'll find a different link.
    Yes I am aware that the wireless adapter isn't assembled by Realtek but the driver being used is
    which is the important part. If you are unsure about it's validity please upload a picture of its FCC-ID
    on the back of the device.

    As far as I could tell, it did successfully remove the driver, which I then reinstalled making sure not to also install the other software.
    I shall disable the ethernet then.
    As far as the drivers go, I looked on the ADD-on website to see if they have updated their drivers, which they hadn't. However there was a driver for Windows 8 by Realtek, so I uninstalled original driver and installed the new one by Realtek, and so far it seems to have worked. When I tried the Driver Verification, the PC didn't crash as it used to so now I'm just running it to see if/when it crashes.

    So far, all seems fixed. I left it on for 24 hours and no BSODs whatsoever, and none when using it normally. So a massive thanks to you, YoYo! Seems odd that such a small thing could be such a big annoyance, but I;m not complaining that its seems to be fixed now.

    Thanks again!!
