Hi,

I formatted my HP Pro-book 4525s laptop and installed Windows 7 Pro 64 bit, before I had Windows 7 Pro 32 bit with no issues. after installing the new Windows, the wireless drivers were not installed and I forgot to memorize the type or model of that. I went to the HP support site and I choose Broadcom drivers. I installed and starts working. Ever since, I am facing a problem with Windows shutting down too many times with BSOD so I suspect that the problem is with the driver or the hardware, but since the laptop didn't have any issue with 32 bit, I suspect that the problem is either with the driver itself or the laptop not being able to handle 64 bit.

Added: recently the WiFi is acting strange, sometimes it disconnects, sometimes it show no internet but still able to browse and sometimes i try to disconnect and stays connected (stuck) so i suspect issue with driver or hardware, how to make sure?

Can someone help me please...

Thanks,
Rami

Why did you installed Win 7 64? With 4G of memory, Win 7 32 works better.

I can see that you have two missing drivers. You have to find out the hardware ID's and look for the drivers.
Open device manager and right click on the fist missing driver - properties - Details tab - Hardware Id's
It is a string like PCI\VEN_10EC&DEV_8168&SUBSYS_E0001458&REV_15
