Constant bsod after idle

[kthompson]

Laptop seems to work fine while I am on it.
Was getting hot, but I started using one of those fan pads and seems to be cooler.
But, if I walk away for 10 mins, I come back to bsod.
Ran viruns programs and found nothing...

Upload your MSINFO32.nfo file.

1. Click on the start button
2. Type "msinfo32" (without quotes) in the search bar of the start menu, click the resulting link. It will open the System Information window.
3. File>Save. In the "File Name" filed, put "MSINFO32" (without Quote), give the save location to desktop, and click the "save" button.
4. Give the time for processing, it will save a .nfo file on your desktop.
5. Zip it, and upload it following the instruction.

Apparently we may say that it is caused by atheros network adapter driver.

You need to update it from ATHEROS drivers for Microsoft Windows (Atheros?????)

Sometimes some other products also uses the drivers provided by atheros. So the MSINFO32 file may point to the issue rightly.

The Display Driver is also failing there. Search in HP's site for any available display driver update for HP Pavilion dv7 Notebook PC (1443).

Yes, it is Atheros AR5009 802.11a/g/n WiFi Adapter.

So you need to update the driver Drivers for Atheros AR5009 and Windows 7.

The download button is at the bottom of the description. It is a zip.You need to install the downloaded athrx.sys (contained in the zip) manually. http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/97061-driver-install-device-manager.html
