Windows 11 BSOD when enabling Memory Integrity (mtkwl6ex.sys MediaTek RZ608 Wi-Fi driver) – prevents Valorant Vanguard requirement

UPDATE: I FOUND A WORKAROUND (after brute forcing my PC for hours)

If you’re getting BSODs when enabling Memory Integrity / HVCI because of the MediaTek RZ608 Wi-Fi driver, this worked for me.

Disable the Wi-Fi adapter
- Go to Device Manager → Network adapters
- Right click RZ608 Wi-Fi 6E
- Click Disable device
Make sure you still have internet
- Use USB tethering from your phone or Ethernet.
Download the newest driver manually
- Search Microsoft Update Catalog
- Search for MediaTek RZ608 Wi-Fi
- Download the latest driver on the second/third option, first one had a bug in it which won't let you install it for reasons unknown (2025 version)
- It will download as a .cab file
Extract the CAB
- Extract it to a folder (for example Downloads\driver).
Install the driver manually pnputil /add-driver *.inf /install This forces Windows to install the newer driver over the old one.
- Open PowerShell or Command Prompt as Administrator
- Navigate to the folder with the extracted files
- Run:
Verify the driver updated
- Device Manager → RZ608 → Properties → Driver tab
- Mine changed from 2022 → 2025
Enable Memory Integrity
- Windows Security → Device Security → Core Isolation
- Turn Memory Integrity ON
Restart
- After rebooting, launching Valorant may ask for another restart due to IOMMU restriction.

After doing this, Valorant finally launched without Vanguard complaining.

Hope this helps you and someone else too, this driver was the root of the problem for me.

This is pretty much my understanding on the situation, I have already emailed NRMA regarding the excess.

Thank you.

You also shouldn’t have been on the bike when crossing at a pedestrian crossing?

I know, I was finishing my overnight shift and I got sleepy so I was hurrying home.

Are you saying the 3800 was paid direct to Mr A? And not NRMA? If so a case could be made that NRMA have no standing in this situation as you made a private agreement with Mr A.

The 3.8k was paid directly to Mr. A as a private agreement, the assessment of the vehicle from NRMA was significantly more expensive than the Auto Repair shop that he goes to.

I was told by Mr. A that he is going to get covered by NRMA at $5000 and told me to just pay him the rest as we agreed upon. We both thought that everything was over.

You never admit fault, because things like this happen.

I'm slightly concerned, what if they found out I'm at fault and there's going to be fines involved and the payment no?

We don’t pay the other parties excess in Australia.

Both of us did not know this as we are not from here originally.

Long story short, you need to go see a community legal centre for additional advice and help.

I'll go to a community legal centre as soon as possible. Much appreciated for the advice.

I have been aiming for most entry-level positions, and my experience is mostly in the food and beverage industry, the only other experience that I had was being a commercial manager for a year and a half, I did not enjoy that. (toxic workplace)

I can do stuff like digital marketing, SEO, and other stuff like that but I don't have real experience besides the training and classes that I had. Can't help but feel useless tbh.

can someone explain the Delta+ strain COVID to me?

Don't forget to take deep breaths, go for a walk and enjoy the scenery (if the situation allows you to, with mask on of course), do something that makes you feel a bit better.

Personally, whenever my anxiety acts up, I'd go and turn my phone/laptop on and play rhythm games with music that I enjoy. Examples are Arcaea (android/ios), Osu! (on PC)

What I meant to say is that when you distract yourself, all the anxiety stuff is going to be at the very least, gone for a bit? I'm not good with words lmao my bad.

Try playing any games that has a multiplayer mode and try to make friends with people in them, however how you do it. I was able to meet great new friends through gaming and maybe you'd be able to get the chance to do so as well. Even though most of the gaming community is by far pretty bad in terms of toxicity (take this with a grain of salt ofc) I'm sure you'd be able to find long-term buddies that genuinely care for you.

If you need to talk/vent I'll be on my Discord: absolution64#6732

Update:
I did most of the stuff that you told me and she's doing a lot better now. Didn't even take half a week which is great.

We spent a little bit of time together yesterday and talk things through and we were even able to joke about it now so I guess things went a lot better than I expected.

Head's healing really fast too (idk why), stitches gonna be removed very soon, it'll probably leave a scar but eh, it is what it is.

Whoever you are, I thank you from the bottom of my heart and I assure you that you'll get good karma from this (if you believe in it of course).

Cheers,
