BSOD Driver_IRQL_not_less_or_equal caused by athrx.sys
I am running a Windows 7 x64 on an ASUS G73jw laptop.
Windows 7 Home Premium x64 is the original OS installed on this laptop, but I am using Windows 7 Eternity x64 as I have been unable to obtain an official reinstallation disc from ASUS.
Home Premium x64 was originally installed OEM.
The laptop hardware is just over a year old, so it might possibly be software issues?
OS was just re-installed within the last month.
I have no idea what is going on, this seems to be a daily occurrence with this laptop. I had no issues with it until a few months back after being gone on deployment. I have all drivers up to date, as I looked at the forum to see if anyone else had the same issue as me.
