I found the problem. The union parameter that I passed to
NdisMSetMiniportAttributes
has wierd data (I wrote the union twice, for two different
structures). NdisMSetMiniportAttributes
returned success however. I think the bad data caused the ndis.sys to
bugcheck later.

After fixing the above problem in my code, the problem went away.

Thanks for your help.
