Hi,i have a acer aspire 5532 and i discovered that when it booted up and got to log in page it then rebooted itself.I have windows 7 64 bit on this laptop.I have later found with a bit on investigating that it is the Wlan,if this is enabled it shuts the PC down.I have it disabled at present and i am using a LAN .I have also discovered that if you go to the device manager and under network adaptors that there is of these WAN Miniports enabled.I have these disabled also now.
I wonder if it the driver for these clashing with my WLAN on my laptop clashing.I do get the blue screen before the laptop shutsdown.
I have wan miniport (IKEv2),Miniport (IP),miniport (IPv6),mimiport (L2PT),miniport (Network monitor),miniport (PPPOE),miniport (PPTP),miniport (SSTP).
I have tried to delete these WAN Miniports but it will not let me.
I have never created that i know of a VPN which i did hear can cause these miniports???
Advice appreciated to what these miniports are and how to delete them if i need to.
I have the laptops WLAN and all these miniports disabled at present so i can still use the Laptop.
I have AVG and malwarebytes installed and no problems that i can see.

Basically if i enable the WLAN via device manager it goes to blue screen and shutsdown.It keeps rebooting until i go into safe mode and disable it again.

it could be a faulty WLan card, or it could be that its just come loose.
