BSOD Help

[TheFrin]

I just gave Prime95 a go, but nothing happened, I'll see how it goes after another couple of runs.

Keep Prime95 running for several hours, and report any errors.

Right I opened up my case, and went in armed with compressed air and a vacuum cleaner, I then ran Prime 95 for 2 hours and then stopped the test, and went straight in to game, played Stalker for over an hour and Mass Effect 2 for over an hour. My CPU has been runing @99-100% for almost 5 hours now and NO BSOD's.

So it looks like over heating was the issue. I'm going to invest in a new cooler now.

Thanks for the help guys,

Not a problem, The help in diagnosing the problem was welcomed, besides if anyone hist the same error codes as me there is always this to comeback to and give them a eureka moment.

I sort of figured. Definitely by a nice aftermarket cooler and get the Silver thermal paste.
