Precision M4800, Windows Pro 10 Win10, Broadcom BSOD
Problem: Blue Screeen BSOD while running torrents computer will shut off repeatedly after 10 minutes while torrents are running. "Blue Screen bcmwl63a.sys Torrents DEV_43B1 Dell 1550 Memory Management Thread Exception"
Very fustrating and this is a new install so im thinking of just going back to Win7 if anything. Have tried multiple drivers. and little things on other forums. I think the stock driver im useing now is working the longest.
System: M4800 i7-M4800MQ 32GB K2100M
BIOS:A18 Windows 10 Pro 64X All Current Drivers Except Network Card
Dell 1550 2x2 Broadcom DEV_43B1 / Dell 1550 2x2 BT 4.0
BSOD Errors:
BCMWL63A.SYS
Memory Management
System_thread_exception_not_handeled BCMWL63a.sys
Along with others errors but these are the most prominent.
Tried:
SFC /Scannow Multiple passes ( reported errors wont fix all)
logs refer to file ownership errors?
DISM No Errors
Memtest 3 passes shows 0 Errors
Tried All 4 Wireless Drives from Dell

Explain this in detail, "while running torrents". How much bandwidth are you using while running torrents? Did you already open the Broadcom in the Device Manager and disable all power save options for it?

Not sure on how much bandwith being used
but it will be multiple files as fast as they allow
Probably over 3 MBPS together if you add it all up.
Did not disable power save features on broadcom.
Currently the best solution iv found so far is using the factory drivers.
Every single update from dell will give me an error.
Date 6/2/2013
Driver Version 6.30.223.256
Sometimes the PC will update driver and then ill get the BSOD error again.
Also I think this card lacks Linux support.
This seems like a temp fix for anyone else who has this issue.

* I do this on all of my systems. I also do not allow Windows Updates to run automatically.

I am experiencing the exact same problem. I have noticed that it only happens when connecting using 5GHz 802.11n. I do not have the issue when connection with 2.4GHz 802.11g.

My Setup
Win10 64x with the Dell 1550 Broadcom BCM4352
The temp fix iv found is which is similar to what others might say is.
Go to device manager. then roll back the driver to the earliest possible factory driver. Dont use any dell drivers. Just OEM regular oldest version. Might have to search within the system itself to find it. If you get another BSOD it will be because the driver will have updated itself. So you have to stop updates on this driver but it might update itself. It could require and uninstall and reinstall of the network card in the device manager.
Please share experiences after this tip. To let others know how its working for you.
