WLAN Autoconfig service is causing the Bluescreen of Death Windows 7
OS: Windows 7 Home Premium I have been uninstalling certain programs off my computer (Norton) and I had encountered a problem when I restarted my computer. I was able to go as far as the windows logon screen, and after a certain point in the startup sound it started replaying the same 30 ms or so of it, definitely signifying a bug, and had brought me to the bluescreen. It had dumped an error file, and basically all it was telling me is that there was some sort of issue with one of my Driver. This doesn't seem to be the problem. After I had started the computer in safe mode to view the dump file, I had restarted my computer in safe mode with networking, but the exact same error had occured, telling me it was something with the network. So I went back into safe mode, disabled a bunch of services through the msconfig, and had individually started those processes back up one by one to see what the problem was. My wired LAN works now, but if I try to start the service "WLAN Autoconfig" it will cause that error. I had reinstalled my wireless driver, but that doesn't work. I am not sure what the problem is, so I kept google-ing to see if there's a way to connect to the internet wirelessly without this service running, and I have not found anything on this. So my question to you is: is there a way to work wirelessly without the use of that service? Or, is there a way to resolve this problem without reinstalling my OS?

There is a way to fix this that I have discovered. Whenever you need to restart your computer, first go into safe mode and disable WLAN autoconfig. Once you have done that, restart and go into normal mode. Then go back into services, set it to "Automatic" and start the service. This works for me on my laptop, because I rarely turn it off. I imagine that setting the service to "Manual" might work all the time, but I have not experimented with that as of yet. Hope this helps.
