Driver Help - Atheros AR5b91 Wireless

BokehBokeh Member Posts: 1,636 ■■■■■■■□□□
I tried to unistall the trial version of Sunbelt Software Personal Firewall. 85% through the unistall I get BSOD under Vista. Now I cannot connnect wireless to any router, and Vista is reporting a sw or hw error with the AR5B91 card.

Acer does not have this driver available on their website, and I have been unable to find it on atheros.com. Does anyone else have a suggestion on where I can find it?

    You tried rolling back with system restore and retrying the uninstall?

    The firewall probably inserted a LSP into the Winsock stack which isn't working properly now. You can remove all the extra LSPs by doing "netsh winsock reset" but that removes everything. If you have anything else in there then you'll need to reinstall it later on.

    You can see what is in there with "netsh winsock show catalog"
