I'd suggest you to go for Clean Reinstall - Factory OEM Windows 7

Follow the guidance step by step.

Do it first, as the service pack is must be there.

If still the same 0x124 BSOD occurs, we would take the hardware tests.

I dont have a lan connection, should i install the lan drivers off my motherboard install disk?

edit 1: did that and got a bsod before updates finished noticed some non defaults in my cmos so I told it to reset. trying update again
I'll post if that fails again

edit 2:
got a few error codes with update but they were easily fixed, I'm currently at SP1 should I install my water cooler software and the catalyst center for my video card?

Install all the other drivers, the display driver too, but try to keep away from CCC itself. Its often problematic.

If the BSODs continue, post following the BSOD posting instructions.

Apparently not.... but if your issue is solved at any time, mark this thread as solved, which will help us to index threads properly and efficiently :)

Now observe how the computer is running. If it is causing any more issue, let us know.
