looking at one bugcheck the driver
\SystemRoot\system32\DRIVERS\athrx.sys Tue Jun 09 11:06:49 2009
requested memory from windows, windows put a guard data structure around the memory block so that it can detect when a driver writes beyond its allocated memory.
in this case athrx.sys was given 9940 bytes of memory but wrote more than that. When it attempted to give the memory back to the system the system detected the corruption and called a bugcheck because of it.
