    Hello guys and thanks for taking time out to listen to my problem, i'v been having problems with my computer since I got it built by one of my colleges, i'v been experiencing the memory_management BSOD.

    Hello Icypanda.

    Install Service pack 1.

    Your crash dumps are not showing any finite probable cause. In such a situation, it is better to enable Driver Verifier to monitor the drivers.
    Driver Verifier - Enable and Disable
    Run Driver Verifier for 24 hours or the occurrence of the next crash, whichever is earlier.

    Test your RAM modules for possible errors, too.
    How to Test and Diagnose RAM Issues with Memtest86+
    Run memtest for at least 8 passes, preferably overnight, per RAM module per slot.

    Let us know the results, with the subsequent crash dumps, if any.

    Also whilst running driver verifier will it produce it's own crash report like the minidumps or will I still need to attach the minidumps from the same location as before?

    The crashes that will be created by DV will be recorded in the same folder, and by executing the SF Diag tool, you will be able to extract them all.

    It is caused by Atheros network adapter driver.

    Hmm that's strange how do I find out what type of atheros device that I have? Also I did take the memory test and my memory sticks have passed without any errors.

    The thing is I have gone onto my network adapters and I am currently using a TP-LINK 150 Mbps Wireless N Adapter so i'm not quite sure how I have a Atheros driver installed.
