I try restarting the computer and the restart does not work and I have to do a hard shutdown and start. There is no internet connectivity when I am back on line and I have to go to the device manager, network adapters and find that the D-Link DWA-140 RangeBooster N USB adapter (rev 82) is turned off. Once I turn it on I obtain internet connectivity.

Can anyone comment

Not certain, but you may find that your problem is related to settings regarding power savings.
First check device manager.
Expand network adapters
Select then right click the problem adapter and choose properties
Inspect the Power Management tab and make sure you uncheck the box that says some about "Allow computer to turn off this device to save power"
Do the same for your USB hubs as this is apparently plugged into a USB Port.
Finally inspect your power plan in Control Panel, specifically for references to wireless and USB be sure they are set for Max Performance or Off / Disabled.

Thank you for your reply. I have adjusted the power settings as you suggested. I will wait to see if the problem re-occurs. Normally this only occurs when the computer has not been used for several hours

Normally this only occurs when the computer has not been used for several hours

And why I'm suspicious of some power scheme that may be causing it.

I have again lost the internet connectivity after several hours. Before I shut down and restarted I went to device manager and checked network adapters and find that the D-Link DWA-140 RangeBooster N USB adapter (rev 82). In the properties it said there was no driver also it did work properly for many hours. In fact it was still working after being on all night with no activity. When I shut down the screen showed shutting down and went dark but the computer did not turn off.

Does anyone else have any suggestions? Power management is set so that the computer can not shut down device

 

[Trouble]

also it did work properly for many hours. In fact it was still working after being on all night with no activity.

That at least sounds like some progress.

When I shut down the screen showed shutting down and went dark but the computer did not turn off.

Go here
Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Power Options
Left column
"Choose what the power buttons do"
Make sure they are set properly "When I press the power button" = "Shut down".
Also in the same place use the Change Plan settings link next to the Power Plan you are using to get to the link that says "Change advanced power settings" to change this.....

Everything was ok in the power settings. I contacted D-Link about the drivers for the DWA 140 and was told that the driver for windows 10 is not available yet. I have ordered a NETGear D600. There is a claim that this works with windows 10. PS when I called NETGEAR they wanted to connect to my computer and install a network firefall which they claimed was the reason for my problems. I did not allow

 

[MichaelT]

By the way I lost the driver at least 5 times this morning

 

[MichaelT]

I have replaced the "D-Link DWA-140 RangeBooster N USB adapter (rev 82)" with a NETGEAR WNDA3100v2 N600 Wireless Dual Band Adaptor since it was claimed that the drivers work with Windows 10. This morning I got a blue screen and a bug check error

This appears to be a bad pool error. According to the MS web page the pool free list is corrupt.

When the computer rebooted, the wireless did not start up correctly. I was able to disable and enable the device but it did not start up. Finally I pulled the device from the USB connector and reinserted. It did start working then.

Any thoughts

 

[Trouble]

C:\WINDOWS\Minidump\110715-12609-01.dmp

Zip up that file and attach it to your next post.
I'm not BSOD expert but I'll take a quick look and see if I can see any glaring problems.
You may have to copy and paste it from the minidump folder into a new folder on your desktop in order to do anything with it.
Windows is kinda finicky about what you can do inside the minidump folder.

 

[Trouble]

Did you install the latest Windows 10 driver / software package from here http://support.netgear.com/product/WNDA3100v2

 

[MichaelT]

I did download the driver from the NETGEAR Web site. I have zipped the file and I am enclosing it.

The good news.....
It's not your wireless adapter or driver.
The bad news.....
The dump file is vague as to what is actually producing the Blue Screen

BAD_POOL_HEADER (19)
The pool is already corrupt at the time of the current request.
This may or may not be due to the caller.
The internal pool links must be walked to figure out a possible cause of
the problem, and then special pool applied to the suspect tags or the driver
verifier to a suspect driver.
Arguments:
Arg1: 0000000000000003, the pool freelist is corrupt.
Arg2: ffffc0004bf471d0, the pool entry being checked.
Arg3: ffffc2004bf471d0, the read back flink freelist value (should be the same as 2).
Arg4: ffffc0004bf471d0, the read back blink freelist value (should be the same as 2).

You have a few very old drivers that need attention (update / upgraded, uninstalled, etc.)
scmndisp.sys 1/17/2007 usually associated with Neutral Wireless Solution. You need to fix this. IF you cannot upgrade / update it, then you need to uninstall it. IF you cannot uninstall it you may have to find it and break it (rename to scmndisp.OLD)

regi.sys 4/16/2007 usually associated with InterVideo. You need to fix this as well. See above
efe5b32e.sys 3/25/2011 usually associated with MSDN Disc 2428.8. Likewise.

You may also need to go here https://www.asus.com/ROG-Republic-Of-Gamers/RAMPAGE_II_GENE/HelpDesk_Download/
Check and confirm that, that is absolutely your exact motherboard without a doubt.
Then download any and all drivers (BIOS, Chipset, Storage Controllers, etc.,)

[BIOS Information (Type 0) - Length 24 - Handle 0000h]
Vendor American Megatrends Inc.
BIOS Version 1405
BIOS Starting Address Segment f000
BIOS Release Date 09/21/2010

It looks like there may be a couple updates, the latest of which is reported to
"Improve system stability" Rampage II Gene 1701 BIOS ..... just check and double check to confirm that you are getting the exact one for your MoBo.

Additionally, and based only on my own personal experience.....
You have Norton installed. Uninstall it using the programs and features applet in the control panel, after which follow up by running the vendor specific proprietary removal tool from here https://support.norton.com/sp/en/us/home/current/solutions/kb20080710133834EN_EndUserProfile_en_us
AND
Virtual Clone CD Driver (vclone.sys)
Both have a tendency to cause Blue Screen issues

After you've tended to the above and the machine is not pitching anymore blue screens you can always re-install them if you want.
