    BSOD constantly, error 0x00000124


    Hello,

    It seems that I am suffering from some severe hardware issues.
    I have a relatively-new rig, been working just fine for 2 months.
    Last night I started getting BSODs and they haven't stopped since. They first showed up in a game (Dota 2), but kept showing up even after reboot, before any programs ran.

    I have done the following:
    - updated BIOS to latest version
    - tested wihtout soundcard
    - tested without graphics card (used onboard)
    - tested without either piece of memory
    - tested without 2nd and 3rd HDD (only primary)
    - performed clean reinstall of windows 7, installation goes well but once in windows, BSOD reappears

    None of the above solved the issues. Furthermore, I have removed primary HDD thinking it was an NTFS corruption issue and tried installing on a 2nd HDD, but bluescreen showed up in the middle of windows installation procedure.

    So basically, I'm 90% sure it's either the motherboard (mainly the hdd controller I think, since I got some NTFS.sys bluescreens at one point), or the processor. But I don't know how to read the memory dumps. Please help.

    Just a small update: I've been reading around and someone suggested to increase processor voltage a step or two. I tried this and while I'm not 100% sure it's solved, I haven't had a crash in 15 minutes, which is definitely an improvement. Does this make sense in anyway?
    Or is it just a weird coincidence?

    Problem still not solved, but crashes occur far less often. I increased the Vcore voltage quite a lot, from 1.000V to 1.200V, and it seems to be much more stable.

    Can someone please help with reading the dump files and let me know if they have any ideas?
    Thanks.
