BSOD DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL and KERNEL_MODE_EXCPETION_NOT_HANDL

[cainine9]

Hi, I have recently built a computer, and over the last few days I have had multiple BSOD. These occur when my girlfriend is downloading Sim3 "stuff", but has occured when I am getting a sc2 patch as well. Here is the info.

I have only had the KerNEL eception occur once, and it is most recent. I noticed that for some of the DRIVER exceptions its file description points to the RALINK wireless adapter. I have uninstalled and reinstalled its drivers, and have used ccleaner to try and clean out old drivers. As well, I have uninstalled my old antivirus. If anyone has any clue as to what is occuring I would be very thankful. Thanks

Welcome
I have examined your reports, it looks like this driver is the cause. Go to the website and update.
Always start with a system restore point.

cainine,
I looked for your adapter on the Win 7 compatibility site and did not find your adapter.

Do you have a specific model name/number?

Here is the site you need to visit:
