My computer tends to lock up from time to time. It doesn't actually show the BSOD, instead the display is frozen and my activity light on the case stays constant. It tends to lock up when i have video or music playing . I was leaning toward the video card driver, however I installed the latest driver and it still locks up. Lately i've noticed that the computer will lock up overnight. Here are some specs.

Mother board: Asus P5P800-VM
Video: EVGA GeForce 6200
Sound: On board
Processor: Intel Pentium 4 @ 3ghz
Windows 7 32bit
Ram: 4GB (2.75 Usable)

I appreciate any help and thank you for your time.

These were all caused by hardware.

Your .dmp file shows a stop error of 0x124 which is a general 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. You can read more on this error and what to try here... Stop 0x124 - what it means and what to try http://www.sevenforums.com/crash-lockup-debug-how/35349-stop-0x124-what-means-what-try.html

Hi,

The constant activity light could be pointing to hard drive problems. Please download and run:

CrystalDiskInfo - Software - Crystal Dew World

And then post back an image of the results.

Yep! There's your problem.........

Note the yellow light next to Reallocated Sector Count. This indicates a potential imminent failure of the disk. You should back up any data on that disk, and replace it as soon as possible.

Let us know how you get on.
