    BSOD problem , dmp file included


    Hello all!

    Hoping you guys can help, I'm getting a repeated bluescreen when trying to load Cubase.

    No new software has been installed/updated [to my knowledge] so I'm guessing it may be a hardware issue.

    I backed everything up using Windows Backup, and attempted a System Restore to 3 weeks prior. This didn't work unfortunately, and after another bluescreen/reset Windows started and proceeded to desktop with this message:

    Windows has recovered from an unexpected shutdown:

    Problem signature:
    Problem Event Name: BlueScreen
    OS Version: 6.1.7601.2.1.0.768.3
    Locale ID: 2057

    Additional information about the problem:
    BCCode: 124
    BCP1: 0000000000000000
    BCP2: FFFFFA800811D748
    BCP3: 0000000000000000
    BCP4: 0000000000000000
    OS Version: 6_1_7601
    Service Pack: 1_0
    Product: 768_1

    Files that help describe the problem:
    C:\Windows\Minidump\100213-15007-01.dmp
    C:\Users\Bouch\AppData\Local\Temp\WER-26020-0.sysdata.xml

    I have included the dmp file as an attachment to this post.

    Many thanks for any help in advance!

    Hi MissGrimsby.

    The BSOD that you supplied is a stop 0x124, usually it is assumed to be a hardware related error. To debug that issue, we need some more information.

    First, Post it following the Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) Posting Instructions.

    Second, fill up your system specs.
    See your system specs and fill it up here.

    Also, take some hardware tests.

    Test your RAM modules for possible errors.
    How to Test and Diagnose RAM Issues with Memtest86+
    Run memtest for at least 8 passes, preferably overnight.

    Stress test the Graphics Card using Furmark.
    Video Card - Stress Test with Furmark

    Stress test the CPU.
    Hardware - Stress Test With Prime95

    Check if the Power Supply Unit (PSU) supplying adequate power to the computer or not.
    eXtreme Power Supply Calculator
    Also let us know the wattage of the PSU.

    Is the computer hot? Report us the heat of the computer after a couple of hours of your normal usage. Upload a screenshot of the summery tab of Speccy.

    Let us know the results.

    BTW, we have noticed BSODs with Cubase earlier ... make it sure that the software is properly updated and the hardware is working fine.

    Thank you Arc, for the prompt response!

    I guess I was hoping for a quick fix, there are many steps to take but I'm on it!

    I will report back when I have all the information required.

    Thanks again!

    Unfortunately a stop 0x124 does not have a quick fix.

    How unfortunate! My gut instinct tells me it's going to be the RAM. I've had problems with failing RAM modules in the past on other systems... due to the time required using Memtest 86+, I'm starting there. I've booted the program from USB and it's rolling now. I was tempted to just remove each module independendly and try loading Cubase to save time without running the program. Opinions?

    UPDATE: It's found an error already. Time to shuffle these modules!

    Now follow the "Part 3: If You Have Errors:" of How to Test and Diagnose RAM Issues with Memtest86+

    Errors/red lines means one or more RAM is faulty. But the fault may occur due to a faulty DIMM slot, too, which is a motherboard component. Using memtest86+, you can discriminate between a faulty RAM and a faulty motherboard.

    How? Say you have two RAM sticks and two DIMM slots. You obtained errors at the test with all RAM sticks installed. Now, remove all the sticks but one. Test it in all the available slots, one by one. Continue the same procedure for all the available sticks.
    How to make the inference that is it a RAM issue or it is a motherboard issue? Suppose you have got the result like that:
    No code has to be inserted here. It is a RAM, a bad RAM.

    But if you have got a result like that:
    No code has to be inserted here. It is a motherboard issue. The particular slot is bad.

    Tested a single module - Memtest86+ gave errors in both slots. Removed the offending module and inserted the other. Tested good for one pass, took a gamble and fired up Windows/Cubase - success! Huge thanks to you Arc, it's been a testing 36 hours since first having the problem and your help has been invaluable. Thanks again!
