    Please help!

    Hello Forum,



    I've been crashing a lot lately and getting BSODs, especially while playing battlefield 3. I just updated my video card drivers to their latest version, so outdated software should be out of the question. Here is the summary i got from windows after i log back in. Can anyone please tell me whats wrong? Any help is appreciated!

    I'm running a legit copy of vista 64 bit ultimate and its the original and only OS on the machine

    Problem signature:
    Problem Event Name: BlueScreen
    OS Version: 6.0.6002.2.2.0.256.1
    Locale ID: 4105

    Additional information about the problem:
    BCCode: 124
    BCP1: 0000000000000000
    BCP2: FFFFFA800739B030
    BCP3: 00000000B647C000

    OS Version: 6_0_6002

    Welcome
    You have a code 124. Code 124 most usually means a hardware problem
    Stop 0x124 - what it means and what to try - Windows 7 Forums

    wow, i read that article regarding the code 124 error and overclocking/pushing components came up quite a few times. i guess 3.6GHz might be a bit too much for the CPU...

    Code 124 is one of the most difficult to diagnose. All we know from the reports is that it is hardware.
    I would not over clock.
    Test hard drive
    Test Memory.

    If none of those tests work, try the other tests that are shown in my posts.

    i brought the clock down from 3.6GHz to 3.2GHz. Still an overclock from the 3.0GHz, but it seems to be running stable now. No more crashes from playing battlefield 3. I suppose I'll let it run at 3.2GHz until i run into problems again. Thanks for your help though richc46!
