Recently, my desktop blue screened, and the cause of it was from outdated drivers on a NETGEAR wireless network adapter.

Does anyone know where I can find the latest drivers?

Agreed, on Netgear's website for your device.

But drivers don't cause blue screens just because they become outdated. This is probably no more true than with network drivers because network protocols are universal and rarely change. If the device did work, then a corrupt driver could be the problem, but then you would need to look at what caused the corruption. It would not be because the driver got old.
