Recent random BSOD with 0x0124 and hal.dll

[vedranbih]

Hello,

I have been getting the same BSOD with 0x124 and hal.dll but it doesn't seem to be triggered by anything specific like playing video games or having multiple programs up and running. For example today I was just watching a streamer on twitch.tv and had 2 or 3 taps open and I got it. I haven't put too much thought into it because it only happens like once a month but I decided to read up on it and it looks like the 0x124 is usually a hardware problem. I figured it might be worthwhile to check what is actually going on.

Thanks.

Hello,

Thank you for the welcome. I ran the test and after two hours or so it passed no BSOD. My cpu temp averaged out at 64C.

Hmm, run MemTest86+, it must be MemTest86+. http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/105647-ram-test-memtest86.html

Okay will do. I will buy a USB tonight and let it run overnight and post the results tomorrow morning.

 

[Laith]

Okay.

Alright so woke up this morning and the test passed no errors it did 6 passes in about 6 hours. Maybe I am just getting false positives? I can rerun the tests if you would lube.

 

[Laith]

Re-run the test as it must be 8 or more passes. Also are you running MemTest86 or MemTest86+? It must be MemTest86+.

 

[vedranbih]

Okay I will double check if its the + or not and let it run until pass 8 will post results in the morning since it states to let it run overnight

 

[Laith]

Okay.

 

[vedranbih]

Alright so it was mem+ and it went to pass 9 before i stopped it and it reported no errors. Like I mentioned it usually happens randomly like I have played cpu intensive games like Total War Rome II and never got BSOD but ill just be surfing the net and get it sometimes like once a month.
