Thanks, didn`t see either program in the list but had to ask.

To see if we can fix Windows, download then run the Windows All in One Repair tool from here, disregard the malware guidance but follow the other steps to the letter and in particular ensuring that you first create a new restore point and perform a proper Windows clean boot before running the repair, details for the clean boot here.
 
There should have been a repair log generated, can you find and upload it for us.
 
I just had another BSOD, again ntdll. I was just starting the game again...

37 repairs carried out by the AIO tool, not a record but still a lot

Question, does the issue only ever happen when you are connected to the Internet.

This seems to have completed the Windows updates?

I`m only seeing the three updates now and none for Windows 10 itself :unsure:

When I check the update history they're still displayed in Dutch rather than English. Maybe Speccy is unable to find them after the change of language?

I'm always connected to the internet, so I would say yes.
 
Correct, I added it with an edit, sorry about that. But yes, I'm always connected to the internet.
 
Thanks, for confirming (y)

Update the BIOS to the latest version 2802

Download and save the latest version 12.18.9.7 LAN drivers, create a new system restore point, uninstall the present LAN drivers, restart the computer in Safe Mode only (No Networking) install the new LAN drivers that you saved, restart and use the computer as you normally would to test, post back with an update when you are ready.

Both of the above are available to download from here
 
Just to be sure, I have to uninstall the present LAN drivers by going to the device manager and then click uninstall, right?
 
So far so good but I noticed a new error in the event logger. Please see the screenshot. I tried to Google how to get rid of it all together but can't find anything. Any tips?

You will always see some error or another in Event Viewer and unless it says critical and your computer is having issues you should disregard them.

Being honest it would save folk a lot of stress and forum helpers a lot of time if users were not able to access such things as Event Viewer without the help of a tech, people see minor issues then start tinkering and nine times out of ten they end up hosing Windows for no reason.
 
Ok, I see. Thanks for the info and sorry. Was just wondering because it started after I disabled the services for the AIO tool.
 
If the computer is no longer in a clean boot state and you are not having any issues I would leave well alone tbh.
