    I do understand about no-SP1 because of the crashes, but usually 2 initial Windows Updates get through before license validation occurs.

    Did you run memtest86+ one stick at a time and alternate the slots?

    I would suggest that you rerun the jcgriff2 BSOD app after reinstall or check the Event Viewer yourself (Custom Views, Admin Events) for signs of trouble.

    even after I've done a clean install? on all the occasions, I formatted the drives clean...during win os install page

    Did you run memtest86+ one stick at a time and alternate the slots?
    i ran the test with both sticks installed on ram slots 2 and 4(the white ones - according to the manual) and no errors.

    However, now that you mention it, I had only the 250GB Maxtor/Seagate HDD hooked up while the 2TB samsung was disconnected...and i got a bsod when i was online replying to this thread.

    okay so here's the update;

    1| removed Seagate drive
    2| restructured the partition on Samsung 2TB Drive
    3| installed windows
    4| prior to installation, i downloaded drivers, all the latest ones from intel, etron, realtek and compared them to ECS' site for which one was latest.
    5| have installed codecs, plugins and even watched movies.
    6| installed all updates except for SP1 - that will take some bandwidth, I'll update to SP1 when I'm returning this rig to my pal (provided the problems over)
    7| surely enough I don't get BSOD f4 anymore
    8| watched a lil bit of tron legacy on the machine
    9| installed daemon tools lite to install MS office from an image file....BUT - got this code a while ago.
    only happens when i go to install MS office 2007

    error 101

    I've included the BSOD file and the image of the error code.

    Hope these can shine some light :/

    P.S; didn't run memtest yet and the voltages for my ram in BIOS are set to default which is 1.562V command rate is also set to default

    and I'm having trouble shutting down the rig. If i hit the shut down button in start menu, it either powered down and then restarted or display goes out while the cpu fan, lights and temp (on 80 port) still run.

    Hi -

    Bugcheck 0x101 = CPU hang

    Intel graphics driver was listed on the stack -
    Code:
    igdkmd64.sys    Sun Apr 10 14:50:59 2011 (4DA1FC13)
    http://sysnative.com/0x1/DriverReference.html#igdkmd64.sys

    Info on 0x101 - STOP 0x101: CLOCK_WATCHDOG_TIMEOUT troubleshtg

    Daemon Tools may be involved here. Daemon/ Alcohol driver sptd.sys is known to cause BSODs in Windows 7 & Vista.

    The BSOD does show setup.exe, likely the MS Office installation you mentioned. I would suggest getting rid of Daemon & installing MS Office via the DVD.

    I noticed that your system clock is off by about 7 days. The system files and BSOD have timestamp = 4 August 2011

    Set Windows Time - Set the clock

    okay then Daemon tools is the next thing to remove from the equation :)

    but i also mentioned that my rig is able to shut down when i select shut down from the start menu. after a few seconds the rig powers back up again...would you guys have an answer for this?

    thank you very much for all your help so far!

    Hi -

    That sounds like a restart.

    Shut the system down via command line - see if it stays off.

    Bring up elevated Admin cmd screen -
    START | type cmd.exe | RIGHT-click on cmd.exe above under "Programs" | "Run as Administrator" | paste -
    Code:
    shutdown /s 
    Regards. . .

    hey there;

    i uninstalled daemon tools lite and also go tried of the imaged MS office 2007 installer

    but a new problem persists, every-time i connect the USB HDD, i get an error code 101 and at one point when i connected the USB drive to the USB3.0 ports, i got a screen artifacting.

    I also tried shutting down the PC via the shutdown button, no luck - the pc shuts off and from a cold start, the pc powers back up again. I also did what you advised, to shutdown the rig via cmd, administator privilege's and shutdown/s after less than a min, the rig powers down but it boots back up again from a cold start...

    I'm at my witts end...and i feel that the board needs to be RMA'd

    Please advise.

    this problem has been solved by changing;
    1st| the HDD which gave me the f4(sounds like a middlefinger BSOD code ) :lol:
    2nd| after some feedback with a member on tom's hardware i did some google'ing and came with these answers and the eventual solution to the BSOD when i hooked up a USB HDD.

    BSOD codes for overclocking
    0x101 = increase vcore
    0x124 = increase/decrease QPI/VTT first, if not increase/decrease vcore... H67/P67 increase/decrease Vcore first then qpi/vtt second.
    on i7 45nm, usually means too little VVT/QPI for the speed of Uncore
    on i7 32nm SB, usually means too little vCore
    0x0A = unstable RAM/IMC, increase QPI first, if that doesn't work increase vcore
    0x1E = increase vcore
    0x3B = increase vcore
    0x3D = increase vcore
    0xD1 = QPI/VTT, increase/decrease as necessary, can also be unstable Ram, raise Ram voltage
    0x9C = QPI/VTT most likely, but increasing vcore has helped in some instances
    0x50 = RAM timings/Frequency or uncore multi unstable, increase RAM voltage or adjust QPI/VTT, or lower uncore if you're higher than 2x
    0x109 = Not enough or too Much memory voltage
    0x116 = Low IOH (NB) voltage, GPU issue (most common when running multi-GPU/overclocking GPU)
    0x7E = Corrupted OS file, possibly from overclocking. Run sfc /scannow and chkdsk /r

    This is taken from XS Forum. A user there posted this. Thought it would help over here.
    more in these two links;
    BSOD Error codes....

    and this

    The ULTIMATE Sandy Bridge OC Guide + P67A-UD7 Performance Review - Overclock.net - Overclocking.net

    please follow this thread to followup on what had happened.

    Hope these help solve anyone else's problems similar to mine :)
    Ciao.
