OK, I'll ask someone to have a look at the update problem for you later. Now onto the stress tests.
STOP 0x124 TroubleshootingRead carefully before proceeding.
WarningIf you're overclocking your system, revert back to stock clocks now.
NoteTest the system once the overclock is removed before continuing with the steps outlined below.
ONE
CPU TEST
Run Prime95 to stress test your CPU. Hardware - Stress Test With Prime95
WarningYour CPU temperatures will rise quickly while under this stress test. Keep a keen eye on them.
TWO
RAM TEST
Run MemTest86+ to analyse your RAM. RAM - Test with Memtest86+
MemTest86+ needs to be run for at least 8 passes for conclusive results. Set it running before you go to bed and leave it overnight. We're looking for zero errors here. Even a single error will indicate RAM failure.[/note]
THREE
HDD TEST
Run SeaTools to check the integrity of your HDD. SeaTools for DOS and Windows - How to Use
Run chkdsk Disk Check
FOUR
GPU TEST
Run Furmark to stress test your GPU. Video Card - Stress Test with Furmark
NoteRun Furmark for around 30 minutes.
WarningYour GPU temperatures will rise quickly while Furmark is running. Keep a keen eye on them.
Okay, thanks for the info. I will run all of these tests and report back tomorrow.
Okay so I have conducted all of the tests and did not find anything out of the ordinary
Prime95: Ran for a few hours, no crashes, temps stayed at around 45 degrees
Furmark: Ran for 35 minutes, no crashes, no articles on screen, temps stayed at around 73 degrees
Memtest86: Ran overnight, no errors
Seatools: No issues found with my hard drive
MemTest86 or MemTest86+? There's a big difference. You used the one linked yes? How many passes? Time is irrelevant, number of passes are crucial.
I ran Memtest86+ and received 7 passes and 0 errors
Because of this in post #24 I do wonder what kind of cooling does this computer has. Do AMD's run that cool?

Yeah I was actually wondering the same thing....I have a Cooler Master Hyper Evo 212 but that is kind of a budget aftermarket cooler.
