Title: Z77X-UD3H ethernet driver causing BSOD
Post by: Antiglobal on December 08, 2013, 02:07:21 pm
Hi, can you please help me with something? I have motherboard Z77X-UD3H. Intel Core i5-3570K @ 3.40GHz. Graphic card - MSI N770 TF 4GD5/OC (GeForce GTX 770 GAMING). RAM - Kingston HyperX 16GB (2 x 8GB) 1600mhz.
Problem is, i occasionally get BSOD which is according to Blue Screen View analyzed .dmp files caused by driver L1C62x64.sys. This is driver for integrated network adapter Qualcomm Atheros AR8161/8165 PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet Controller. Driver i use is latest i could find on Gigabyte site (same as on Qualcomm web site). Appreciate any help. Thanks.

What bios are you running? You might want to update to f18. If that doesn't fix it might be that on board nic could be going bad.

The only thing you can do is if you have network card or can get one. I would try that and disable the on board.

Have you tried the previous 2.1.0.19 driver?

Download it here >> http://www.station-drivers.com/index.php/listes-constructeurs/42-qualcomm-atheros/111-qualcomm-atheros-lan (http://www.station-drivers.com/index.php/listes-constructeurs/42-qualcomm-atheros/111-qualcomm-atheros-lan)

Today is one week since i changed network adapter. No BSOD. I did not turn off my computer at all, only once windows restarted it for automatic updates, but it was on for a week, playing demanding games (running 2 same time), downloading torrents, burning dvd's, many programs running simultaneously and not a single BSOD. So, i guess, it was faulty integrated network adapter or lack of good driver for it. Thanks all who tried to help.

Glad you got it working and you never know when some thing would fail. I have heard that some times you can get a power spike through you internet connection. I not saying that is true.

But I have guy that runs a repair shop and he has show nic cards that have been fried. Plus everything else in the computer is fine.

I've started having intermittent problems with my NIC adapter too. I read about a guy in Australia that also had problems so maybe it's turning into a common thing with this MB?

Any recommendations on a PCI adapter?
