    Please help me analyze this BSOD (Firefox/Video issue)


    I always get BSOD when viewing videos in Firefox. My cpu is slightly overclocked but I had it overclocked even more in Vista with absolutely no problems. I'd rather not put it back to normal speeds just to watch videos when everything else works fine. Can someone tell me what I can do besides going back to normal speeds?

    The vital bit of info which is missing - does going back to clock speeds prevent the crash from occurring?

    I've tested this and it seems like the overclocking is the issue though the BSOD happens randomly so I need more testing. My drivers are all current.

    Anybody know why Windows 7 seems to get random BSOD when watching or converting videos when Vista & XP didn't? Anything else I can do?

    OC = using the hardware in ways for which it wasn't designed

    Thank you. Maybe this will be respected, in general by everyone, since you've said it.

    You're welcome :)

    I am actually trying to help you, even if that previous post was shorter than I intended (blame my wife). There is absolutely no point analysing a crash which only occurs when overclocking. You already know the cause - the hardware is being pushed beyond its design spec.

    Overclocking is like a rite of passage that many computer hobbyists go through early in their careers. There's that frisson of feeling like you managed to beat the system because you got more than you paid for. However, most hobbyists eventually work out that it's far more fun to use computers rather than try to squeeze every last drop of performance in some synthetic benchmark, and and that point they conclude that OCing is actually detrimental because it decreases reliability.

    It's not my forum of course, but this section is about understanding the operation of software, especially at the boundary layer with hardware. Here, OCing constitutes n00bery which gets in the way of the truly interesting investigations. It's nothing personal.
