    Sounds like something is unstable or faulty.

    How long did you let Prime run?
    Have you ran Memtest86? If so, how many passes?

    I think driver verifier is actually causing the bsod's you are getting. (it's tagged in every one of the minidumps)
    You could try just disabling it.
    Driver Verifier - Enable and Disable

    prime95 ran for about 1 min if that before BSOD while overclocked, memtest86 ran that for 1 hour not sure how many passes, but no errors

    ah okay let me dig back into the dumps a little further then.
    It kind of gets in the way when it just keeps crashing on hidclass.sys
    ...though it could be pointing to a mouse or keyboard driver problem if you are using a fancy mouse or keyboard.

    Sorry I was wrong, you got the worst debugger message you can get. You have a overclocked device that needs the clock removed. Or you have failing hardware, it's pretty much the only two possibilities with this error type.
    Stop 0x124 - what it means and what to try

    Code:
    *******************************************************************************
    *                                                                             *

    *                                                                             *
    *******************************************************************************
    
    WHEA_UNCORRECTABLE_ERROR (124)

    its same keyboard & mouse ive used now for the pass 2 years, never installed driver for them just PnP, i noticed in the perfmon reports there is a issue with virus program, could that be coursing the driver verifier to BSOD?

    but that really doesn't explain the BSOD when i over clock PC and run Prime95, cause it as BSOD within 30 seconds of start Prime95.
