    BSOD on Start - able to start in Safe Mode and Restore


    Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit on Dell XPS 8100 with Intel Core i5, 650@3.20 GHz, 8Gb RAM, worked flawlessly out of the box in April (for five months). For a few weeks, powering off had produced "Installing Windows Updates, 1 (etc) of 8" - each and every time. Two days ago, power on results in normal system start until Windows Log In screen, which lasts about 2 seconds; then monitor displays all sorts of pretty colors. Left alone, the system restarts and ends in Black Screen with Start options; Start in Safe Mode works fine. System Restore works fine. But, removing power and starting again (cold) repeats above performance. Have attached zip file of Windows_NT6_BSOD_jcgriff2; but could not figure out how to include a Performance Monitor Report (no User Defined, or System reports shown).

    These were both caused by hardware. Please read these to find out what it means and what to try

    Your .dmp file shows a stop error of 0x124 which is a general hardware error .. A "stop 0x124" is fundamentally different to many other types of bluescreens because it stems from a hardware complaint. Stop 0x124 minidumps contain very little practical information, and it is therefore necessary to approach the problem as a case of hardware in an unknown state of distress. You can read more on this error and what to try here... Stop 0x124 - what it means and what to try Stop 0x124 - what it means and what to try

    Thanks

    KMODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED (1e)
    This is a very common bugcheck.  Usually the exception address pinpoints
    the driver/function that caused the problem.  Always note this address
    as well as the link date of the driver/image that contains this address.
    Arguments:
    Arg1: ffffffffc000001d, The exception code that was not handled
    Arg2: fffff80002c704c9, The address that the exception occurred at
    Arg3: 0000000000000000, Parameter 0 of the exception
    Arg4: fffff70001080400, Parameter 1 of the exception
