Windows 7 Random BSOD while playing games

[MrApproved]

Hey guys im having a spot of bother, recently ive been having the BSOD about 3/4 times a day, sometimes instantly when i open a game (Terraria/WoW/BFBC3/Minecraft etc) or it can take up to hours or whenever, the time is always different.
I did try to install Fedora 16 VIA usb pen about a month ago, but it did do it before but not as much, anyways here is the zip file with all the minidumbs and i hope it helps also i have just updated my graphics card drivers but nothing else, if anyone has a good program that detects if there is a newer driver, it would be awesome ,

Most of your recent dump files 12 of the last 13) identify a problem with
athr.sys 9/26/2010 Atheros Extensible Wireless LAN device driver
This could be an actual Atheros card or one of many top tier vendor cards using an atheros chipset.
If you can identify exactly what network adapter you are using you may be able to update the driver from here Link Removed
Otherwise post the Hardware Ids and we'll help find you the proper driver.
As an additional priority you need to update this driver
ASACPI.sys 8/12/2004 from here Link Removed
Near the middle of the page under utilities ATK0110 driver for WindowsXP/Vista/Win7 32&64-bit should get you to the 5/13/2009 version
The only other driver I see an issue with is
nvm62x32.sys 10/17/2008 NVIDIA MCP Networking Function Driver you may need to check with Nvidia or more likely the motherboard vendor for your specific motherboard for an updated version of that driver.

Awesome, k first off i downloaded the
ATK0110
driver and i have updated that, the wireless network card i am using is
TL-WN851ND
made by TP-LINK
also the Nvidia driver? any chance i could get a link for a driver or? do you want me to get you the hardware ID

Cheers

Also i just downloaded drivers for my network card here http://www.tp-link.com/en/support/download/?model=TL-WN851ND+
are these up to date?

 

[Trouble]

Update the atheros from here TL-WN851ND - Welcome to TP-LINK
should get you to the 2/12/2011 version of that file

 

[MrApproved]

also here is the link to my motherboard ASUS update page, which one do i need?
Link Removed

 

[MrApproved]

Also i have just installed the driver from this site for nvidia chipset
Link Removed

Chipset>NVIDIA nForce Chipset,
is that all that needed doing? if so thanks alot, if i get anymore BSOD i will post back ASAP

 

[Trouble]

Yes, I would have recommended the chipset update from there and if Blue Screens persist you may want to consider a BIOS update from there as well (if applicable).
