BSOD with Uncorrectable Hardware Error

[edgil1985]

I have recently recovered my computer hoping to fix the problem and it did not. Here is my file. Thanks for any help.

Sorry here's option 2

There are no dump files in the zip folder. However it is not really necessary because 0x124 or WHEA_UNCORRECTABLE_ERROR points to a hardware error. First of all we should run some stress tests.

Please stress test your CPU with Prime95 by following these instructions.

Stress test your graphics card by running furmark.

Finally run memtest86 to scan for faulty RAM.

The reason why recovering your OS won't work is because it's a hardware error.

I will run these and get back with you

 

[edgil1985]

Prime95 ran for about 1 minute and my system crashed. I'm fixing to run the other two and see what happens.

 

[Thedoctor44]

I am almost certain it's your CPU. Your system crashes within a minute. You should replace the CPU.

 

[edgil1985]

I ran the Furmark for 30 minutes and nothing happened. Gonna run the last one just to be certain.

 

[Thedoctor44]

Nothing will happen if your GPU isn't faulty. As I have stated, you should look at buying a new CPU.

Thanks for the help

The problems I am having is on a laptop. How hard is replacing the CPU on a laptop?

 

[Thedoctor44]

Ah, well that depends on the laptop. Some laptops you can replace the CPU, some you can't. What motherboard is it? What chipset is the CPU using?

 

[edgil1985]

I hope this helps.

 

[edgil1985]

It's an AMD processor.

 

[Thedoctor44]

Can you take a screenshot of your motherboard from CPUID, it depends on your motherboard. You probably can upgrade it.

 

[edgil1985]

See if this is it.

 

[Thedoctor44]

That board should be able to replace the CPU. Laptops require every detail examined which is difficult to do so I wouldn't recommend getting a different CPU to what you have now. Sorry

 

[edgil1985]

So I can't upgrade but getting a new version of what I have should fix my problem?

 

[Thedoctor44]

Well you probably could but it's very risky so I personally wouldn't do it. Replacing your CPU Should cure the BSODs. I can't say it will definitely but it looks very promising.
I'm sorry to say but I just don't have enough time on my hands to go looking for the CPUs you can upgrade to. You will just need your motherboard and chipset you are using. It's all on CPUID.
Sorry about that but good luck.
Any more issues and I'll be glad to help.

You could create a thread here

I'm sure somebody there will help you

I'm really just looking to fix it and sell it. I've had many intel based computers in the past with no problems and now it seems I get an AMD based system and it goes to hell.

 

[Thedoctor44]

The main problem I've encountered with AMD systems are their drivers and overheating issues.
Anyway you should be able to replace the CPU if you know what you're doing.
Like I said check out the other forum category for more assistance.
Good luck
