BSOD Under Stress - A Clock Interrupt was not recieved
Full BSOD: A clock interrupt was not received by a secondary processor within the allocated time interval.
Hi,
I just built a computer for the first time and it seems to be working fine except for this single BSOD I keep getting. At first I thought it happened just at random times until I started realizing a pattern. First thing I realized was that it only happened when I was playing World of Warcraft for about an hour. I checked my CPU temp while playing WoW and it seemed to go up from 28 to about 38-45. That doesn't seem right to me. But it seems that when it gets to around that 45-50 degrees celcius, it gets this BSOD. I confirmed this when I tried to play Assassin's Creed: Revalations. Apparently AC using more memory and heats up the CPU much quicker than WoW. I get the BSOD the second the I load my save. Also, I tried to do the stress test mentioned in this post: Hardware - Stress Test With Prime95. I was not monitoring my CPU temp when I did it, but I got the same BSOD the second I started the "Small FFTs" test.
If anyone could help me I would be extremely thankful. I guess I should mention this is my first time building a computer. I ordered all the parts off the internet and put them together myself about two weeks ago.
System specs:
OS: Windows 7 Home Premium x64 (bought retail and installed manually)
Processor: QuadCore Intel Core i7-2600, 4018 MHz
Motherboard: Asus P8P67-M Pro
Memory: Corsair Vengeance (4 x 4 GB DDR3)
Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 550 Ti (1024 MB)
Thanks for any help at all,
Ethan
