Random BSOD

Letg · 31 Dec 2010

Got a new one. Computer was idling and seeding stuff at uTorrent when this happened. Can this be problem on my HDD? I also got some very weird results on HD Tune.

Bump the CPU/NB Offset Voltage to 1.2v.

Run Memtest86+ and if it passes, run Prime95.

Let us know the results.

I wont be able to do Memtest86+ today, becouse im gonna be leaving my house for few days. But i will try to do Prime95 before i leave.

Starting Prime95 now. But how could it fail with higher voltage if it worked with lower?

Letg · 01 Jan 2011

Hour of Prime95 is up now and it passed it. No errors/crashes and temps were fine too.
I will do Memtest86+ on monday when i should come back home. I will be able to read this thread when im gone.

If it passes both memtest86+ and Prime95, use the system normally, re-create the crash scenario.

Let us know how it's going.

Letg · 03 Jan 2011

Memtest86+ passed, so im now just gonna recreate the crash if possible.

Let us know the status, hopefully a good report.

Havent had any crashes after raising that voltage, so its looking good.
But becouse of the randomness of my crashes, i cant be sure if it is fixed or not so i keep posting here if i keep getting BSODs.

Thanks for Dave76 and CarlTR6 for all the help! :)

Your Welcome.

That's Good news, hope it stays that way.

Let us know if you get any crashes, if it's still running good in a couple of weeks let us know so we can mark the thread solved, this will help others with similar issues.
