Blue Screen of Deaths problem is hal.dll?

Question
-
Hi there,
I have a brand new Toshiba A505-S6972 which came with a pre-installed version of Vista.
I ordered myself a copy of Windows 7 Home Premium (which was sols to me by Toshiba for 10 dollars).After Installing Windows 7 Home Premium (64 bit), I installed all new available drivers for my notebook.
Most of the drivers came from 2009, I Installed Windows 7 in February 2010.
So I'm thinking my system should be up-to-date..
The big problem is when I play games or other big applications I get a BSOD,
my system restart itself, and I get a windows solution center pop-up.
When I start searching for a solution, it tells me there isn't any available.
This is what I get after the system restart:

Hi,
Generally, BSOD requires codec debug and source file analysis, it is recommended to contact Microsoft Customer Support Service (CSS) for assistance so that this problem can be resolved efficiently. Here I would like to propose some common troubleshooting based on my research.
According to the BCCodes, I found the Bug Check String:
Bug Check 0xA: IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL
You can visit the above link for causes and resolutions.
Best Regards
Dale

I have encountered this one before on XP, the resolution was a driver issue with the WI / FI card. Had bad driver. Took couple of weeks to figure out. I would recommend double checking all drivers you loaded and insure that they are WHQL'd. Otherwise "Clean Install", which is what I wound up doing anyway.

seems that i have the same error; after debug i see that NETw5s64.sys is the problem (Intel wifi drv) THERE IS NOT a solution on that ISSUE YET, pls check links below
You can update your drv from intel (they say that is an improvement but the problem is not solved)
You can choose to shut down the wifi while gaming
I've done research on the NETw5s64.sys and it looks there is a real problem with this Intel driver on many computers. At this moment Intel does not have a solution yet.
there some discussions on Intel Support Community (and a new driver, but it did not solve this trouble, just a small improvement):

Hopping that Intel will come with a solution SOON...
