Hi Stuntz4life,


Please could you re-run again, I know its a pain but there seems a lot of info missing in your dump file.

Sorry about that, could that be because the system was turnedoff halfway through the blue screen instead of when it goes off by itself? Anyway, i will let another one happen, collect the minidump and get back to you tomorrow. Thanks for your help so far.

Hi,

Yes the computer would need to power down and reboot in order to write the latest dump file,

Speak tomorrow,

Bugcheck 0x124 coupled with a Bugcheck 0x101 points towards a processor problem. The most probable chance would be the L2 cache gone for a toss.. But we can confirm that with a dump file..

Also could you use speedfan and post the temps that the processor is running

Hi Stuntz4life,

While we are waiting for Centaur78 to analyse your new dump files, i came across a similar problem to yours with an easy-ish fix. Im not saying it will work but it ties in with Centaurs analysis of your dumpfiles and may provide a solution, but wait until you hear back from him first incase it can be resolved without doing this.

Code:

Bugcheck 0x124 coupled with a Bugcheck 0x101 points towards a processor problem.

Im assuming its a tower as i dont have your specs.(not that it matters, if laptop just harder)
(Earth yourself or touch the side of your case periodically while performing this)
The solution was to remove and clean the CPU fan, then remove the CPU, carefully clean the CPU itself from all the old thermal paste, apply new Thermal paste, and re-assemble. (not too much or it will act as an insulator)

Hope this helps

cheers

Dave
