Regular Bsod (BCcode 124) after playing Diablo 3

UPDATE: I may be a complete idiot.

Please don't laugh if this is a stupid question. Do I need to update the chipset drivers of my mobo to get this to work? Could that be the problem?

It might. Just make sure you have a restore point just in case.

Hey Everyone just wanted to give you an update. I actually gutted my machine and even reapplied thermal compound to the CPU and CPU heat sink. I reinserted everything n and started getting a Kernel Processing Power Event 6. Take a look at this...

Event ID 6 Microsoft-Windows-Kernel-Processor-Power (en-US) - TechNet Articles - United States (English) - TechNet Wiki

I tried messing around with the power options but to no avail. I ordered a new Mobo it should be here soon. I will post an update when I install it. I also got the same blue screen 124 error as before.

Right now my high suspicions are towards this AsRock n61p-s motherboard. If you have this Motherboard, be careful installing Windows 7.

Hello everyone,
I pray this will be my final update. I ordered my new asRock A770de+ to replace my old asRock n61p-s and so far I have had no problems running windows 7. I left it on overnight and I awoke to no notifications of bluescreen bccode 124 errors.

On a different note, my new motherboard came with a defective network adapter which was an easy $20 fix with a new card.

I'm going to play some diablo 3 and install league of legends and leave it on overnight again tonight, I will report back tomorrow to see if we can mark this thread as solved.

Thanks for all the support.

Good job and good luck

I ran Diablo 3, League of Legends, Skype, and Avast and had no blue screens. I left my computer idle all night and when I woke it up, there were no bluescreens. I am confident that this problem is now solved.

Lessons learned: Not all hardwared is compatible with windows 7. I have been told, "Any old Motherboard will do," but that is simply false. My asRock n61p-s did not work with windows 7. As soon as i switched my motherboard, the bluescreens stopped. So if anyone out there is having Blue screen errors with a Bccode of 124, hardware error, and you just can't figure out why, do all the recommended tests first, but check you motherboard manufacturers website to see if your motherboard supports windows 7. Thanks again everyone. Post solved.
