• DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL (athw8x.sys) BSoD - driver problem

  My PC had this problem since I bought it a few months ago, it is said:

  Your PC has encountered a problem and needs to restart. We are only collecting the error information, and then we'll restart for you.
  If you want to learn more, you can search online later to this error: DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL (athw8x.sys)
  Is there someone out there have this problem with their Toshiba Satellite L850 as well? I'm looking for the solution for this BSoD as happens more often recently :(
  We need the DMP file because it contains the single record of the sequence of events that led to the accident, what drivers have been loaded, and what has been loaded.

  
  

  WE NEED AT LEAST TWO FILES DMP TO SPOT TRENDS AND TO CONFIRM THE DIAGNOSIS.

  
  

  If you're overclocking (pushing components beyond their design) return you to default at least until the crash is resolved. If you don't know what it is that you're probably not overclocking.

  You may be able to get the DMP files without crashing by booting in SafeMode (F8) with networking.

  If you are overclocking stop.  (chances are that if you are unsure if you are, you are not)

  To allow us to help you with symptoms BSOD on your computer, download the contents of your folder "\Windows\Minidump".

  First of all, you need to update to win 8.1 and in itself, it may solve the problem.

  This phenomenon was linked to your driver Atheros 2 year and liked.  I remove the current one and install the latest driver available.

• Windows 8: DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL (athw8x.sys)

  I recently bought a Toshiba Satellite laptop there are a little over 2 months. I don't really use it much apart from surfing the internet until about two weeks ago, when I took my laptop to the University to do work, when all of a sudden my laptop crashed? It came with (athw8x.sys) DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL Error on a blue screen. It happened for the first time Monday, 7. It happened only once so far but I continued to bring my laptop to the University that I have exams and need access to my files but the problem is still ongoing and happens at least once a day and it seems to be crashing more often?

  Can someone help me solve this problem? Thanks in advance.

  Hi buraksav,

  The errors seem to be due to the e22w8x64.sys:

  BugCheck D1, {fffff880229c7000, 2, 0, fffff880067d8f9b}

  WARNING: Unable to verify timestamp for e22w8x64.sys
  ERROR: Module load completed but symbols can be loaded for e22w8x64.sys
  Probably caused by: e22w8x64.sys (e22w8x64 + 19f9b)

  The e22w8x64.sys, which is dated July 10, 2012, is a driver for the NIC Killer (Bigfoot).

  There should be a newer driver for Windows 8 x 64 in the following link:

  http://www.msi.com/product/NB/GE60-0ND.HTML#/?DIV=driver&OS=WIN8

  If the error persists, try what is suggested in the following link:

  http://service.msicomputer.com/msi_user/TechFAQdetail.aspx?formid=3054

  The application crashes in the errors on your system is dota.exe and what is suggested in the link (by disabling the Service Qualcomm-Atheros killer) can also help in your situation.

• Satellite A305 keeps restarting

  I have a Satellite A305-s6857.
  Windows xp 64 bit vista.

  This is what is happening, please bare with me it gets really confusing. Laughing out loud

  My laptop keeps restarting on its own.
  at first I thought it was overheating - so I downloaded SPECCY and clean the radiator using carbon Spray. CPU temperature average around 60 degrees.

  so after ANOTHER REFORMAT. the computer worked fine, installed all the drivers using the recovery CD. (computer remained without restarting)
  everything worked well. After you have installed all the drivers, I restarted the computer and it came

  "your account has been disabled. Please contact your system administrater' so I went safe mode created an administrator account.
  Another thing to install TOSHIBA came after rrestarting the computer where I would choose an account name and password.
  so after that I got through the process, he went on the desktop.

  After that, he did it again. Computer keeps restarting, sometimes only takes a few seconds, sumtimes lasts 5 minutes.

  RELATED ISSUE: Tuner FM from Toshiba keeps repeatedly installation and restart the computer.
  then I went to msconfig and disabled everything on start up.

  I don't know much about laptops, but in MY OPINION.

  It is a software problem, VISTA/driver problem, if its vista I think it has something to do with the admin default thing, cus when I am connected to this account, that it has not been restarted.
  but when this thing "account disabled" came and I had to use a new user, he did it again.

  AND ALSO: When in safe MODE, the computer does not restart.

  someone please get back to me.

  Thank you

  Hello

  > I have a Satellite A305-s6857 running windows xp 64-bit vista.

  What Windows environment it restarts: Win Xp or Vista or both?

  > so after a REFORMATER FEES. the computer worked fine, installed all the drivers using the recovery CD. (a computer stayed on without restart) everything worked fine. After you have installed all the drivers, I restarted the computer and it came

  It looks like a driver/driver causes reboot.

  > SECONDARY QUESTION: Toshiba FM tuner keeps several times install, then by restarting the comp. I went to msconfig and disabled everything on start up

  Can remove you it at all to check?

  Hello

  All attached files of the DMP are the bug check DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL (d1) .

  This indicates that a kernel-mode driver attempted to access pageable memory with a high IRQL.

  A driver tried to access a pageable (or that is completely invalid) address while the IRQL was too high. This bug check is usually caused by drivers who used a wrong address

  athuw8.sys is the network adapter Atheros UB91/UB93/UB94 of Qualcomm, pilot (Wireless USB adapter).

  Perhaps this driver is not compatible with Windows 8, see if there is an update as soon as POSSIBLE. If not, uninstall the software and remove the adapter for troubleshooting purposes.

• Satellite L650 - blue screen - driver_irql_not_less_or_equal iastor.sys

  Toshiba Satellite L650, Windows 7, Intel Core i3 processor.
  My computer suddenly restarted and I get a blue screen with a message - 'iastor.sys' does not.

  Anyone encountered before?
  How can it be resolved?

  -Earlence

  iastor.sys seems belongs to the SATA/controller HARD disk controller.
  Eventually he deliver s HARD drive.
  However, you can try to reinstall the Storage Manager Intel because this package contains this file.

  If this is not enough, try to restore the system using the recovery disc or HARD drive recovery...

• Satellite T130 keeps restarting instead of close

  Just bought a laptop Toshiba Satellite T130 used pre-installed with Windows 7, and as we got him, he had a problem down.

  When I press Shut Down, it stops ok, all the lights go out as if it's just off and then a few seconds later, it starts again.
  I can't seem to find the problem here, sometimes it restarts perfectly in windows and other times it turns on and freezes without turning on the screen etc..

  I tried to update the BIOS, reinstall windows on a second partition, even reinstall all the drivers on the toshiba site.

  It should also be noted that when I put the system to sleep, he puts the PC to sleep and then a few seconds later, it restarts, raise the good old "an error has occurred, you want to start saving mode, start windows normally" etc.
  When you enter into hibernation mode, it hibernates it just find and then light up again...

  I read many forums for support and none of the solutions worked.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated!
  Thank you!

  My laptop froze this morning so I had to reset by holding the power button down, then when I went to turn it back on, it goes to the screen of the safe option mode where it gives me the following options:

  safe mode
  safe mode with networking
  safe mode with command prompt

  I tried all of the above options and whenever one of them is selected, it starts to load Windows with blue small bar that hangs, restarts and repeated everywhere: S

• Windows error 8 - (athw8x.sys) DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL.

  Windows 8 crashes intermittently with error DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL (athw8x.sys).

  I've seen other similar messages, but need advice on what I should specifically uninstall or change to stop what is happening?

  Hi rich,

  I understand that your plant and you get the error: DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL (athw8x.sys).
  This athw8x.sys file is associated with the driver for the Atheros Wireless card.

  To help you with the problem, we need additional information. Please answer the following questions:
  (1) what is the brand and model of the computer?
  (2) you receive the blue screen error when you use a particular application?
  (3) don't you make changes to the computer before this problem?
  (4) what antivirus application do you use?

  I suggest to visit the website of your computer manufacturer and install the updated for your Atheros wireless card drivers.

  If the problem persists, you can uninstall the same driver and restart the computer.
  To uninstall, refer to this step:

  a. press the Windows key + R, type devmgmt.msc in the run prompt.

  b. expand the network adapters section, right-click on Atheros adapter and then uninstall it

  c. reboot, let Windows 8 detects the driver and install it by itself.

  If the problem persists, you may need to check with your computer for all drivers to Atheros manufacturer.

• Satellite M40 - 277 keeps restarting - button / stop?

  I have the problem that the (per hour to enter acient) laptop Satellite M40 277 of mine keeps restarting unpredictibally. Initially I have if it was a problem of overheating, so I used SpeedFan and CPU-Burn a test, but the computer does not restart until the airflow to the bottom is fine (I consider that the entry of the fan on the bottom a design error, but it's something else). Now, if the air flow is a bit stuffy, the laptop stops at about 83 and then it will have difficulty to challenge. Ok.

  However when the laptop is about 63C it restarts sometimes and I feel, it can be a power button is stuck. I have XP installation so that it will always ask before you actually stop, and when I pick up the phone on the side (the plastic box where the power button is integrated in waiting) I often question of the judgment. NP, just click away. But I also feel that the button can get stuck and then the system turns off after 5 seconds of 'holding company' the power button.

  So I just tried to get a quick glance and we should normally be able to remove the keyboard, but this M40 is a challenge. Even after that the keyboard is free, I don't see the actual power button.

  Is there anyway to loook under high elegant green rim the power button? How to open this thing up?

  Tom

  Hello

  As far as I know this little switch cover is fixed by 6 latches and connected with small flat cable to the motherboard. It just seems but if you don't know how to remove it you can damage these small latches and later you won't be able to fix the new.

  Anyway, if you think that this power button / troubled maybe just make the switch cover replacement may solve the problem.
  What say about it? Try to get the spare part and ask if anyone can exchange it for you.
  Of course, the best thing is to ask for professional help, but it will cool somewhat.

  Another way, do a risk and try to replace one.
  Let me know what you think of this.

  Good bye
