Acer Aspire 5250 - BSOD Kernel Auto Boost Lock with Raised IRQL

So, I was chatting with Microsoft about an issue with OneDrive, and all of a sudden my computer crashes. The error says "KERNEL AUTO BOOST LOCK WITH RAISED IRQL". I have included the dump log in this thread.

Can someone please what tell me what happened?

It looks like your wireless driver Jesse,

Code:

BugCheck 192, {fffff801b13df740, ffffe000171c5ff8, 2, 0}

*** WARNING: Unable to verify timestamp for athrx.sys
*** ERROR: Module load completed but symbols could not be loaded for athrx.sys
Probably caused by : athrx.sys ( athrx+10fd87 )

Which is pretty old,

Code:

There is a newer one for W8 here,

It also flagged your graphics driver but that may be a one time thing since it was the wireless getting most of the attention.

Once you download and unzip that folder, just right click on the one in red and select run as administrator,

I did that, and below is what it said.

OK, that's too bad, but we can try this driver,

Drivers for Atheros AR5B125 and Windows 8

You have to use this method to install it though,

Driver - Install in Device Manager in Windows 8

Because it doesn't have an installer.

Okay. It was successfully installed.

You're getting this stuff down Jesse.

Now we just wait and see if you have any more problems.

Okay. Thanks for your time and help. I will keep you posted.
