    [BSOD] Bugcheck 101; what is it?


    - Windows 7 x64 bit;
    - the original installed OS on the system: windows 7 professional 64 bit;
    - full retail version;

    - the age of system (hardware) one year;
    - the age of OS installation: seven months after last installation.

    This is my first time I get the bugcheck 101; I wonder why.

    Thank you.

    It's a hardware related error message.
    It can sometimes be caused by a overclock that has become unstable.
    Stop 0x124 - what it means and what to try

    Code:
    WHEA_UNCORRECTABLE_ERROR (124)
    A fatal hardware error has occurred. Parameter 1 identifies the type of error
    source that reported the error. Parameter 2 holds the address of the
    WHEA_ERROR_RECORD structure that describes the error conditon.
    Arguments:
    Arg1: 0000000000000004, PCI Express Error
    Arg2: fffffa8007b6a8d8, Address of the WHEA_ERROR_RECORD structure.
    Arg3: 0000000000000000

    I see it is in some way related to a PCI Express interface; I wonder if you may determine what hardware device is installed there if any; I have a notebook, no overclock and no hardware device installed.

    Thank you.

    Just so you are clear on one thing, the laptop itself, is hardware.
    I'm sorry to hear this is coming from a laptop it could mean the device is at the end of it's life.
    There are far more things you can do and parts you can replace in a desktop.

    There is a slight chance that you did not properly secure the heatsink when cleaning the fan, and overheating could cause a problem like this.
    I'm sorry to say short of the steps at the link there isn't a lot of help we can offer via the internet for this kind of thing.
