When I woke up this morning my computer had the infamous ‘Blue Screen of Death’, microsoft’s way of telling you that something has gone wrong with your computer. And gave a cryptic message about some IRQ (or interrupt issue) with BCMWL5.SYS. If you are like me and have no idea what that means, I did a bit of searching.

So I downloaded a new version of the Dell TrueMobile 1400 driver from the Dell Support Web Site which includes the latest version of the required driver.
