WHEA UNCORRECTABLE ERROR usually occurs while gaming

[DutchOperative]

No integrity violations were found

OK, I'll ask someone to have a look at the update problem for you later. Now onto the stress tests.

STOP 0x124 Troubleshooting

Read carefully before proceeding.

   Warning

:warn: If you're overclocking your system, revert back to stock clocks now. :warn:

   Note

Test the system once the overclock is removed before continuing with the steps outlined below.

ONE

 CPU TEST

:ar: Run Prime95 to stress test your CPU. http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/100352-hardware-stress-test-prime95.html

   Warning

Your CPU temperatures will rise quickly while under this stress test. Keep a keen eye on them.

TWO

 RAM TEST

:ar: Run MemTest86+ to analyse your RAM. http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/105647-ram-test-memtest86.html

MemTest86+ needs to be run for at least 8 passes for conclusive results. Set it running before you go to bed and leave it overnight. We're looking for zero errors here. Even a single error will indicate RAM failure.[/note]

THREE

 HDD TEST

:ar: Run SeaTools to check the integrity of your HDD. http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/313457-seatools-dos-windows-how-use.html

:ar: Run chkdsk http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/433-disk-check.html

FOUR

 GPU TEST

:ar: Run Furmark to stress test your GPU. http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/100356-video-card-stress-test-furmark.html

   Note

Run Furmark for around 30 minutes.

   Warning

Your GPU temperatures will rise quickly while Furmark is running. Keep a keen eye on them.

 

[DutchOperative]

Okay, thanks for the info. I will run all of these tests and report back tomorrow.

 

[DutchOperative]

Okay so I have conducted all of the tests and did not find anything out of the ordinary
Prime95: Ran for a few hours, no crashes, temps stayed at around 45 degrees
Furmark: Ran for 35 minutes, no crashes, no articles on screen, temps stayed at around 73 degrees
Memtest86: Ran overnight, no errors
Seatools: No issues found with my hard drive

 

[Boozad]

MemTest86 or MemTest86+? There's a big difference. You used the one linked yes? How many passes? Time is irrelevant, number of passes are crucial.

 

[DutchOperative]

I ran Memtest86+ and received 7 passes and 0 errors

 

[Boozad]

It needs 8 passes at least to be conclusive.

Because of this in post #24 I do wonder what kind of cooling does this computer has. Do AMD's run that cool?

Prime95: Ran for a few hours, no crashes, temps stayed at around 45 degrees

 

[Boozad]

That is strange, it seems way too cool while being stressed by Prime95.

 

[DutchOperative]

Yeah I was actually wondering the same thing....I have a Cooler Master Hyper Evo 212 but that is kind of a budget aftermarket cooler.

 

[Boozad]

That cooler isn't a bad aftermarket cooler, but it's nowhere near good enough to keep temps that low. What were you using to monitor the temps?

 

[DutchOperative]

I use HWinfo

 

[Boozad]

That's normally pretty reliable from what I've seen.

 

[Layback Bear]

In the last couple of weeks on this forum I have seen where Hardware Monitor has been giving false readings to some.
At the present time I have more faith in Speccy and the bios readings.

A fellow AMD user might have a better suggestion.
RealTemp works good with Intel but I don't know how well it works with AMD.

 

[DutchOperative]

I'll try Speccy and see if the results are any different. Thanks for the suggestion

 

[DutchOperative]

Speccy is reporting my temperature even lower than HWinfo....While running Prime95, Speccy showed 30˚C and HWinfo showed 45˚

 

[Boozad]

This is the second instance in a couple of weeks where AMD rigs have not been giving true values with temperature readings. Could you boot into BIOS and check your temperatures in there, report back and post a screenshot/photo if possible.
