    Hi,

    The last 5-6 days I've been having a lot of BSOD on my PC.

    I downloaded and tried to update and use other compatible drivers from atheros.cz
    But then my computer freezed when used in about 20 minutes.

    crash dump file: C:\Windows\Minidump\111412-21262-01.dmp
    This was probably caused by the following module: athrx.sys (0xFFFFF880081C8DC0)
    Bugcheck code: 0xD1 (0x0, 0x2, 0x1, 0xFFFFF880081C8DC0)
    Error: DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL
    file path: C:\Windows\system32\drivers\athrx.sys
    product: Driver for Atheros CB42/CB43/MB42/MB43 Network Adapter
    company: Atheros Communications, Inc.
    description: Atheros Extensible Wireless LAN device driver
    Bug check description: This indicates that a kernel-mode driver attempted to access pageable memory at a process IRQL that was too high.
    This appears to be a typical software driver bug and is not likely to be caused by a hardware problem.
    A third party driver was identified as the probable root cause of this system error. It is suggested you look for an update for the following driver: athrx.sys (Atheros Extensible Wireless LAN device driver, Atheros Communications, Inc.).
    Google query: Atheros Communications, Inc. DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL
