Dell Wireless Vista Ultimate x64 BSOD: X64_0x3D_bcmwl664+580b4
Hi there,
I recently ordered a new Dell XPS M1530 with Vista Home Premium. I upgraded it to Vista Ultimate x64 and ever since I installed the drivers from Dell for my wireless, I've been receiving seemingly random BSODs. Here is the information you may find necessary: Device Name: Dell Wireless 1505 Draft 802.11n WLAN Mini-Card Driver Title: "Broadcom Extensible 802.11 Network Adapter Driver" Driver Location and Name: c:\windows\system32\drivers\bcmwl664.sys As a note of mention, this same issue happened to me once in Windows 7 Beta 1 build 7000, which I installed on a separate partition on this laptop. Any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated. I've already tried searching for updated drivers (via Windows Update; I haven't Gooooogled or searched Dell's site yet) and run through all the, "Problem Reports and Solutions" scenarios, sans disabling auto-tuning or the device altogether. Thanks for your time and any help, Stephen |

In Vista Ultimate, can you roll back the driver from device
managers, network, adapter, properties, driver? In Win7, there is a known bug with the Broadcom driver. The network team at MS is testing a fixed driver. Remember, Win7 is still a beta.
