This is a follow up to a post I made a few weeks ago where I said Vista still sucked in order to gain attention and perhaps some help with my problem and elicited responses from many a forum troll but no fixes to the issue.
Now that I had some time to look into the issue. I discovered that the "Vista 64" Drivers I downloaded and installed for my Dlink DWA-542 was the cause of my 18 hour hellish nightmare. How could these drivers have been the culprit since I downloaded them from the manufacturers web site and they clearly stated they were Vista 64 drivers??
After scouring the internet for hours, I finally stumbled upon a short thread tucked away in some random site that mentioned something about using Atheros wireless drivers instead of the factory supplied drivers. Could this be it? Could this be the answer I've been looking for? It seemed too good to be true. So I tried it...
And a week later not a single Vista crash... How could this be?
Next on the list of things to do... disable those annoying multiple confirmation pop ups.. grr...
Insult your fellow members like that again, and you can post elsewhere for awhile
