BSOD while gaming - Unknown_Module_ffffffff`ffffffff

[Akoni]

As the title states, BSOD and not sure of what the cause could be. Maybe someone can analize a dump file to see what's up?

That audio stutter loop crash is really annoying..

Hi,

Seems like a hardware error.

A "stop 0x124" is fundamentally different to many other types of bluescreens because it stems from a hardware complaint. Stop 0x124 minidumps contain very little practical information, and it is therefore necessary to approach the problem as a case of hardware in an unknown state of distress.

DEFAULT_BUCKET_ID: WIN7_DRIVER_FAULT

Think a driver could also be the cause?

At first I was worried it might be related to my cpu overclock, but I dialed that back and passed stress tests. The only things I could think of with hardware is either the usual suspect of RAM or my graphics card. That or heat. I hate 124 because it's so vague and not always an indicator of an actual fault with hardware being damaged.

I might run Prime 95 before going to bed later on and see if I wake up to a stable system. Passed stress tests before with Intel Burn Test, but this might be worth a shot.

The default bucket ID is the default. Same for all the cases. No decision can be framed based on it.

Still, there is a chance that the BSODs might be caused by any device driver, but the hardware is the primary place to search for the root of the issue in your case.
