Welcome
The BSOD reports give little clues and not answers. You have given us only one report with one little clue. There is not enough to determine the cause of the BSODs. Use the computer and after you get several more, post them here and you will be helped.

thanks alotttttt....richc46 and jmv2009...yes the problem was the atheros wireless driver i spent my whole day searching this bsod..my netbook was mentioned here in the affected models list Affected Model list i replaced athrx.sys with the one in the windows 7 then voila windows 8 booted fine but wireless drivers was rejected due to signature issues so installed the latest drivers from station drivers and everything is ok now...been trying to find out the problem for more than 2 months so finally..thanks alot jmv2009 and richc46 for your time im very thankful to you both....plz explain how to update the drivers while windows 8 is being installed....

jmv2009 · Nov 17, 2012

It's the same dump file...

richc46 · Nov 17, 2012

Look at the probable cause, we show completly different results. That should not be as we are both using Ms Debugger and not Bluescreen veiw, which often shows different results.
