That error is usually related to either GPU (hardware or drivers) or RAM (hardware). To get a more exact cause of the error - BlueScreenView (http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/blue_screen_view.html) will give you all of the errors during boot. If you can install the BSV program, and get the additional errors and copy/paste them here, it will give a better indicator of what is going on.

It looks like you are having an issue with the driver Qualcomm Atheros Extensible Wireless LAN device driver Driver for Qualcomm Atheros CB42/CB43/MB42/MB43 Network Adapter.

I didn't have any luck finding drivers for the network adapter - do you have the most current version for Windows 8.1?

The TP-LINK wireless adapters have been having problems with the 8.1 update. I was helping someone else with a similar problem a few weeks ago, and TP-LINK did not have drivers released at that time. The adapters are causing BSOD & internet connectivity issues.

The current fixes would be to wait for the new drivers and live with the BSOD/connectivity issues - or replace the adapter with a different brand. The last option is to reload Windows 8 - and do not update to 8.1 (Microsoft has tried to push everyone to 8.1).

My wireless adapters work fine in 8.1 I'm using 3 TP-link WDN3200 USB adapters.

None of them have crashed since I've plugged them in. These dont have Win8.1 drivers either only 8

Had to install them because the windows drivers (which were installed as soon as I plugged them in), didnt give me an option of selecting the 2.4 or 5 ghz connection. Only 2.4. The TP-link drivers showed both
