I have been getting BSOD 0x124 for a while now. I have tried restoring my machine back to factory, replaced the HD, RAM and DVD/ROM. I read in the forums about using Prime 95. I downloaded it, ran the base test and it crashed in 5 mins. I am pretty proficient with computers, but I am having a hard time with this. If someone could figure out what is causing it so I can get the part replaced or the software, I would greatly appreciate it.

Installed SP-1.... ran system diagnostics... came back with a bad battery. Replaced it and still getting 0x124 BSOD. Only thing I can figure now is either the mother board/ integrated graphics or the CPU is going bad.

Some hardware tests to run.


Hard drive(s)test(s):
Pick one for your HDD brand or use Seatools.
7 Free Hard Drive Testing Software Tools

RAM (memory) test:
This will require memtest on a bootable CD or USB stick.
RAM - Test with Memtest86+


To show volts and much more, download and install HWinfo for your 32 bit or 64 bit system.
HWiNFO, HWiNFO32/64 - Download

Scroll down to the green "Download Installer" button.
Ditto, plus ....

Only thing I can figure now is either the mother board/ integrated graphics or the CPU is going bad.
There is a fair chance that your idea is right, because

I read in the forums about using Prime 95. I downloaded it, ran the base test and it crashed in 5 mins.
It is either the CPU is highly overheating or the CPU is bad. But we have to wait for the tests those Britton30 suggested, specially the HWiNFO one; to say anything more in this line.

One thought is if the power adapter or battery isn't supplying adequate power that would cause Prime95 to fail or cause a BSOD.
