multiple issues after clean install
Hello guys.
I was hoping you could give me a hand here. I was experiencing multiple stop 0x00124 errors on my system. I was told it could have been caused by an overclock. My apu is an a10 5800k with a base clock a nd turbo boost of 3.8 and 4.2ghz respectively.
I purchased an r9 280x last week and it installed flawlessly on my system. Performance was great for days before i started getting bsods. I did not want to risk it and decided to perform a clean install. Since then ive had nothing but troubles.
Had a hardtime making my motherboard recognized my flashdrive with windows 7 installation files. Got a message that my copy of windows was not genuine and had to call phone support, video output would sometimes not be detected. Etc etc... Then i finally managed to get a consistent run on the machine and decided to plug in my bavkup drive. To my surprise the computer wont boot with it plugged.
I checked bios and habilitated it again but im sure that should not have been the reason. I left to work and decided to work on the computer later that day. Come back amd fore it up. Now i dont get video signal but i do get sound. I unpligg my gpu and run off the onboard. NOW as soon as windows boots up i get a distorted screen and latdr it does take me to my desktop properly. Amd displays a message saying that drivers had to be reset. I did so and later put back my gpu now i dont have any video problems at all.
What could be happening? Its certainly overwhelming. This is also my work pc and the levels of stress are rising.
System specs:
amd a10 5800k
radeon r9 280x xfx
kingston hyper blue 2x 4gb sticks
gigabyte f2a85xx up4
Cooler master silent pro 850w
2 seagate hdds 500 and 1500 gb.
Amd video drivers are 11 beta 9.4
Amd chipset are 9.4
I did not install any drivers from the motherboard dvd this time.
Any help would be inmensly appreciated
