BSOD when running CPU-Z or HardwareMonitor after overclocking
Hello!
I built my PC in November of 2011, and have just now started to overclock the CPU and GPU to maximize my gaming performance. I made the following changes:
CPU Offset Voltage +0.005V
CPU Turbo Boost Voltage +0.004V
CPU Multiplier x34 (Up from 33...just started)
About 50% of the time when I run CPU-Z or HardwareMonitor, my computer crashes, saying:
"A clock interrupt was not received by a second processor within the allocated time interval"
I've attached an export, as requested. This just started to happen when I dialed up the multiplier, and didn't happen when I kept the voltage the same and turned it back down to x33. I've since stopped using HardwareMonitor or CPU-Z to monitor core voltage and temperatures and have successfully ramped the multiplier up to x40 without issues (Prime95 for 20 minutes produces no errors). However, it still sometimes crashes when I run either of the monitoring software applications.
Any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks!
