Hi all,
Bit of an issue with one of the laptops... The laptop in question is an Acer Aspire 5101AWLMi (windows XP home). The issue 'seems' to be related to the wireless adaptor...
Lately, it has struggled to connect to our network. Often it will find all of the networks within range, but you try to connect to ours it fails and then cannot find any networks in range... if you do the usual 'repair' connection, the wifi adaptor is disabled and then enabled - the machine then blue screens.
Also if you attempt to 'Turn On' the wifi adaptor via the Acer e-power management software and then 'apply', it will blue screen.
This also happens if you toggle the wifi switch on the front edge of the laptop. This makes me think it is wifi adaptor/driver related..?
The error is:
"DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL ....
... Technical Information: ***Stop: 0x000000D1 (0x00002854, 0x000000002, 0x00000000, 0xAD5C2115) *** ar5211.sys - Address AD5C2115 base at AD58A000, DateStamp 4608ab25 ..."
Thanks in advance for your suggestions...
