BSOD at random, also PC locking up for 5-10 seconds. error 0x00000101
Hi
I've been having this issue for about a month now, and has now gotten teeth-gnashingly infuriating! I have had this setup for about 18months, and the last hardware added was a different DVD write about 14 months ago.
No specific pattern/cause but PC would just BSOD with the message "A clock interupt was not received on a secondary processor". I've rotated the RAM to see if this is any issue, reseated the GFX card, and even taken out 1 stick of memory to see if this helps; but it hasn't. BSOD has gotten less frequent, but the pausing and locking up is happening nearly every other minute, and lasts for upto 10 seconds.
I haven't updated to the latest BIOS as yet, as according to the suppliers of the OC'd chip/mobo, it would render the OC redundant. However, I have now gone back to standard settings, so maybe the BIOS update would be advisable.
Any help is greatly appreciated
Many thanks
