• 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.

• 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".

  The procedure:

  * Copy the contents of \Windows\Minidump to another location (temporary) somewhere on your machine.

  * Zip up the copy (compress)

  * Please download to a service like Skydrive or "Rapidshare" to share files and put a link to them in your answer.

  Link to find out how to download below.

  http://www.WikiHow.com/use-SkyDrive

  To ensure the minidumps are enabled:

  * Click Start, in the search box, type: sysdm.cpl, press ENTER.

  * On the Advanced tab, click Startup and recovery... Settings button.

  * Make sure that automatically restart is unchecked.

  * Under the writing debugging information header, select image partial memory (256 KB) in the list box drop-down (varies from 256kb).

  * Ensure to that small Dump Directory is listed as % systemroot%\Minidump.

  * OK your way out.

  * Reboot if changes have been made.

  Please also run MSinfo32 and download the output as well.

  To run MSinfo32 please go to start > run > MSinfo32

  Go to 'file', 'save' and download the PDF is saved with the DMP

  System specs are extremely useful then please include everything you know.

  
  

  Blue screen view and that crashed are often wrong and should only be used in case of emergency...

  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.

  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.

  Hi @Sacramento,

  Welcome to the HP Forums! To help you get the most out of the Forums of HP, I would like to draw your attention to the Guide of the Forums HP first time here? Learn how to publish and more.

  Thank you for posting. I read your post, and I understand that your laptop has crashed at 1 month after the upgrade to Windows 10. I wanted to help.

  Your computer may start normally? When the laptop crashed, did you get a blue screen with the error message?

  Please check if all the updates of Windows installed on your laptop?

  How to: install and update drivers in Windows 10

  You have 28 days to return to Windows previous once you upgrade to Windows 10.

  If the problem persists, you can consider going back to previous Windows:

  Return to earlier Versions of Windows

  Let me know how it goes.

  I've read about it online but do not understand because it seems that everyone had different problems or newspapers. Could someone help me solve my problem?

  These accidents were related to the corruption of memory (probably caused by a driver).

  Please run these tests to check your memory and find which driver is causing the problem.

  
  

  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.

  
  

  Since then, it is more likely to be a pilot run everything first.

• Can Windows 8 driver_irql_not_less_or_equal (Netio.sys), anyone help me?

  Hello

  I read a lot of posts on the same problem and I actually tried some of the 'solutions', but my laptop always breaks down. It crashes on average twice a week.

  In case you're going to ask the minidump file, I have the file zipped and uploaded here:

  http://www.mediafire.com/download/c4zf8o7mhcc085d/022114-32359-01.zip

  I'm not very good with computers, so I don't really know if it is the right file. I just went to C: / / Windows/minidump

  On the antivirus, I used two of them both before and I uninstalled the other, but the problem persists. I also learned that the problem was caused by the 3rd party antivirus and many suggested to uninstall all 3rd party antivirus and just use windows defender. I'm not really sure if the use of your computer with windows defender only is sure however.

  I hope someone can enlighten me on this subject. I would be very happy. I was facing this problem since end of 2013. I uninstalled actually may programs already.

  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.

  By default, the fault of accidents is NETIO.sys which is network IO subsystem. This is not the real cause of the accident and usually when we associate network crashes like that, it is caused by one of two things:

  1 network drivers themselves must be updated.

  2. 3rd party antivirus or firewall software cause of NETBIOS conflicts.

  Remove and replace integrated Avira Windows Defender in Windows 8 for temporary troubleshooting purposes:

  athw8x.sys is a driver for NIC Atheros CB42, CB43, MB42, MB43 of Qualcomm
  Qualcomm Atheros Extensible wireless device driver. It is the WiFi device driver.

  If this device was preinstalled when you purchased the computer, you will need to contact Toshiba support and ask about compatibility problems and get the latest driver for Windows 8 for this device.
