Stop error occurs when you update the in-box Broadcom network adapter driver

This issue affects computers that meet the following criteria:

  • The operating system is Windows Server 2019, version 1809.
  • The network adapter is a Broadcom NX1 Gigabit Ethernet network adapter.
  • The number of logical processors is large (for example, a computer that has more than 38 logical processors).

On such a computer, when you update the in-box Broadcom network adapter driver to a later version or when you install the Intel chipset driver, the computer experiences a Stop error (also known as a blue screen error or bug check error).

  2. Open Device Manager, and then select the Broadcom network adapter.
  3. Right-click the adapter and then select Disable device.
  4. Right-click the adapter again and then select Update driver > Browse my computer for driver software.
  5. Select the update that you downloaded, and then start the update.
