BSOD 0x00000124 seemingly random + other possibly related issues
Hey there, i've just signed up to the forum with you guys, so I hope i'm doing everything right.
Just 10 minutes before i type this, my computer crashed. I wasn't really doing anything unusual, wasn't playing a game, was just browsing the internet and watching some videos when i got the BSOD with the title code.
My computer has been having some issues lately, i reformatted about a month and a half ago, that solved most issues temporarily, but they're all back now.
The most frequently occurring problem, is not severe, but it is very irritating; when watching youtube videos, it will play the video anywhere up to 2 minutes, then just start over for no reason.
It started to BSOD more often before the reformat (which is why i did it), unfortunately i've lost which codes it had, there were a couple of different ones. (if i get new BSOD codes i will update the thread with them, including the dump files).
The computer is homebuilt, almost all parts are reasonably new due to a recent overhaul, aside from my 2nd and 3rd hard drive (the OS Hard Drive is under 6 months old).
This is all the information i can think of right now, hardware info is on my profile.
EDIT1: Virus scans turn up nothing.
EDIT2: Just remembered, prior to reformatting, my antivirus stopped working, couldn't install a new one, couldn't uninstall the old one, and deleting the directory manually in safe mode, caused it to crash on boot. To scan it i had to install windows on a separate hard drive and scan like that. That scan turned up nothing. To clarify, the feature that allowed it to detect new threats as they appeared still functioned, but it couldn't run a full scan. the AV program is Avast!
