BSOD 0x124 on first build. Troubleshooting my brains out
Thanks for helping me, in advanced. This is my first build, and my first time coming to a forum for help.
Build-
Gigabyte GA-Z77x-d3H
Samsung 840 SSD
Corsair Vengeance 2 x 4gb
Using the mb's graphics, Intel HD 4000
600 watts
Looks like 0x124, hal.dll +12a3b, ntoskral.exe 18c443
I am a total novice, so let me know if this posting is in error. Checked hardware, reloaded OS several times, tried a diferent HD, single RAM, every option I could learn before begging for help here.
I got BSOD almost instantly at first. Reinstasll Win7
I noticed the crash seemed to happen after installing the MB provided video drivers, which i was doing before updating Win7 Home. Determined a possible driver issue, so I upgraded windows first, then went to the websites to find remaining drivers. BSOD began to get furher and further apart, but still crashing if I open two browser windows. Did memtest86, Windows memory scans. BSOD instantly with prime95. Got a copy of the dump. Any input form such a huge forum?. Thanks
