BSOD: DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL ntoskrnl.exe

[Adam Kane]

Hello,

With NVIDIA Surround and dual GeForce GTX 570s, I crash games that are rated A after about 10 minutes. (For example: Alan Wake)

Here's the minidump and a bunch of other diagnostic info:

Any ideas?

Thanks!
Adam

Sorry Kinjo your asking on the wrong site, if you want help with bugs / crashes related to a driver, you need to contact the driver manufacture, in this case Atheros (working on the assumption your pulling athw8x.sys from the BOS message and not a random forum), as athw8x.sys is the windows 8 version of their wireless driver. If there is an answer to your problem it's on Google.

Also side note, please don't necro 4 year old dead threads.
