    Hello ppl.
    I tried everything I could to make sure.
    I used a PSU that is working on another pc just fine. No use.
    I took the RAM from that machine (only 1 stick) and used that one instead of mine and still the same, no use.
    I even took that pc's HDD (which ofc is working fine) and set that one to my pc as the only drive and still it gave me a BSOD with 0x0124 error.
    It seems that the only things remaining is CPU and MB.
    How do we check for any of those 2 if we don't have any spare to check?
    Any ideas?

    If you know someone with a mobo with the same socket, you could swap the CPU, else you either have to go to a computershop or RMA. For the CPU there are stress tests, but they are mainly meant for cooling issues since faulty CPUs don't occur much.

    I have taken the MB out already and will take it to the vendor I bought it from. If it comes back with a cleasheet I will have to send the CPU to the other vendor and let's hope one of the 2 vendors comes back with a fault and substitute the faulty one.

    Hello again.

    It took a lot of time but I finally managed to find out what the problem was.
    It was the CPU. It was tested on 2 different MB and was giving BSOD on both, either on a new installation of windows or an existing one.
    Thanks for your help ppl.

    Regards

    Thanks for getting back to us.
    Seldom does a CPU give such a problem but it can happen.
    Monitor your temps on a new CPU to make sure their is not a temp problem causing the death of a CPU.
    To high of temps can destroy a CPU in a matter of seconds.

    I have two self built water cooling computer systems, so I really don't know which aftermarket cooler is the best. Other member will be able to give suggestions.
