Hello to everyone :)
As you saw already i'm another victim of the BS.For days i've been searching the forums and so far i've read 1239123123 posts about the cause of the problem,and almost everytime someone writes somthn different.I downloaded the program WhoCrashted and on all 37 crashes the problem seems to be : Hardware

On Fri 24.9.2010 г. 13:49:57 your computer crashed
This was likely caused by the following module: hardware
Bugcheck code: 0x124 (0x0, 0x878D63F0, 0xB6000000, 0x181)
Error: WHEA_UNCORRECTABLE_ERROR

Some of the dumpfiles were corrupted and could not be opened. The ones that I could open showed BC124. You just have to read the information that I gave you and go one step at a time. Start with memory.

10x , I'm starting step by step, I'll keep u posted
Just out of curiousity,does it matter that my battery is completely F*cked and I operate plugged-in every time
 

My Computer

I would get a new battery. The problem is hardware. Battery would qualify.
Go one step at a time, just post if you have questions
Start with the memory test.
Make sure you are not overheating.

I think the overheating isn't the problem because sometimes it goes bluescreen about 5-6 times before I have even entered my password when I'm turning on the pc
From where can I see what my video and audio cards are, and where do I need to search about drivers
Thanks!
 

My Computer

I dont think it is a driver problem. You can go to search and type device manager and see all your drivers and cards. At the top under view, tick off view hidden.

Just finished the mem scan - no errors, but the first time during the scan, it overheated and shut down completely, for about a minute I wasnt able to start it,(dunno if this matters )

Any hardware problem can be fixed at your leisure, except overheating. If it overheats you can cause major damage to the computer. That must be fixed and that is probably the cause of your problem.

Follow these steps to prevent future overheating and most likely solve the BSOD problem that made you come here
