    BSOD playing any video game and on reboot (error 0x124)


    I'm really hoping some of you lovely people here are able to help me fix this because I haven't been able to do anything aside from browse the internet and work on school projects since this started happening.

    To my knowledge, this error has been caused by some hardware issue; but it seems to only appear when playing games (mainly counter strike) and after restarting following the initial crash. So, I've been crashing twice for every time I try to play any game now.

    All of my drivers (including SATA, PCIe, USB, etc) have been updated to the most recent versions, and I have not changed or installed any new hardware in the last several months. The first crash came after installing and playing Endless Legend for the first time through Steam (which included the .NET Framework 4.5 install), and a brief attempt at playing osu!, which I uninstalled and thoroughly purged from my system.

    Specs:
    OS: Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit
    Processor: AMD 1090T Black Edition (3.21 GHz)
    Motherboard: Asus Sabertooth 990FX
    RAM: 16GB DDR3
    Video cards: nVidia GeForce GTX 760 and nVidia GeFroce GTX 550 Ti (running as dedicated PhysX)

    Windows is installed on a 128GB SSD from Kingston (I forget the exact model).

    I know that you guys (probably) don't need this, but I'll include my WhoCrashed dump anyway. This is only the last couple errors, but there has been at least 18 BSODs in the last 48 hours. The most common one has been 0x124, but if anyone wants the rest of the codes I can get them in the order they appeared.

    Thank you for your help!

    I bought it like this with all of its current hardware except for the hard drives I had from my previous computer. It came with Win7 Ultimate installed and I accepted that at face value.

    Hiya and welcome to SevenForums!

    You play osu! aswell? Hi-five bro!

    Code:
    BugCheck 124, {0, fffffa800dd4c028, f6344000, 145}
    
    Probably caused by : AuthenticAMD
    Run Prime95, if the temps goes too high stop the test. Hardware - Stress Test With Prime95

    Also try to re-install Windows.

    I ended up fixing the issue! I believe it was a heat issue relating to the secondary cooling fan on my GTX 760. I had a case fan that used a 4-pin connector taking power directly from my PSU, then splitting it to power the 760. The fan had been making noise for quite some time, and removing it seemed to have fixed all issues.
