intel ac 8260 bsod on wakeup after sleep

hi,

not sure the best place to post this but will give it a shot. I have a intel 8260 on a EVGA z97 stinger wifi board, running windows 7. I successfully installed the drivers thanks to help from this board but since then whenever my computer wakes from sleep it displays a BSOD with the error message pointing to ntfs.sys. This only happened after I installed the bluetooth drivers so that my guess, wondering if anyone can help me take a look at the dmp and see if my theory is plausible. i ran chkdsk and it came up clean.

the dmp is uploaded at: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/25143216/010616-4071-01.dmp https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/25143216/010616-4071-01.dmp

thanks!

edit: I am now 99% certain it is the bluetooth drivers for the 8260. I disabled it in device manager and my computer successfully recovered from sleep without a BSOD, whereas it will happen almost everytime before. I am using 18.1.1507.528 drivers from the intel page.

We are going to take a look at the dump files. Thank you very much. Before we go any further we would like to know if this adapter is the one that came installed by factory or was installed later. We will create a service ticket for you. Please check your private messages.

yup I tried the new drivers and turned off power management in device manager and that seemed to resolve the problem. I can now sleep the computer without waking up to a BSOD.

thanks!
