![]() Atheros AR9002WB-1NG Wireless Network Adapter. Looking at it it shows that "athwbx.sys" is causing the cpu usage to spike up (which seems connected to the Atheros wireless card). I saved another etl file and that one showed that "atw8x.sys" was causing the spike, but I can't find any google search saying what that file is connected to (also I can't remember what drivers I had installed at the time for that run). |
