Hello,
I used that TL-WN422G V2 USB WLAN adapter few years with Windows 7 x64 Ultimate and the driver from CD and everything worked fine.
Now I want to use that adapter for my new pc, but now I get blue screens from athurx.sys.
I uninstalled the adapter and deleted the driver several times in the Device Manager and installed the TP-Link driver for Win 7.
But after installing one of the both latest drivers (100324 and 100611), Win 7 gives a blue screen after 1 or 2 hours surfing in the internet.
All latest USB and Chipset drivers are installed, memtest86+ runs without errors.
Here is one of the dumb files, opened with WhoCrashed:

This was probably caused by the following module: athurx.sys (athurx+0x8666)
