    Recurring BSOD, need help


    Hello everyone, I just registered here so i can get some help with this very annoying problem. You see, i have been getting bsods very frequently (2 every day). I have found that when i check out the report in Blue Screen View, ntoskrnl.exe is ALWAYS there, sometimes accompanied by other system files. I really need help, but all i can provide is this one dump file. Reason being i performed a reinstall of Windows 7 Ultimate and i performed a disk clean, and i cleaned all of my .dmp files thinking i wouldn't need them since i thought the problem would be fixed. Well, I was wrong. I even performed an sfc /scannow to check for corrupt files, some were found and fixed. But apparently that was not enough. I have no clue what the solution to this is, and help very much appreciated. Thank you!

    Hello and Welcome !

    Seems like athr.sys i.e. Atheros Wireless LAN Driver as caused the System to crash. Please go to their website or Laptop manufactures website and install the latest version of Driver. Check this website ATHEROS drivers for Microsoft Windows

    Follow this guide for Driver Cleanup https://captaindebugger.wordpress.com/drivers/

    Bugcheck:

    Code:
    DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL (d1)
    An attempt was made to access a pageable (or completely invalid) address at an
    interrupt request level (IRQL) that is too high.  This is usually
    caused by drivers using improper addresses.
    If kernel debugger is available get stack backtrace.
    Arguments:
    Arg1: 40010022, memory referenced
    Arg2: 00000002, IRQL
    Arg3: 00000000, value 0 = read operation, 1 = write operation
    Arg4: 8726c254, address which referenced memory

    Hello, Captain (loved those movies), thank you so very much for your help! It WAS that driver that was outdated. I just downloaded the new updated version and bam, no more crashes. Sorry for the sort of late reply and i hope you come back to check back on this thread to see you just saved me lots of frustration and research! Again, THANK YOU!!!

    It's sad that people won't respond if they get it fixed. Atleast there are few of them who value our suggestions that care to come back and report.
