BSOD 0x124 issue. A recent change - Windows 7 x64

[griven1]

This has just started happening and I am hoping for some help here.

These screens started a week ago. I have made no changes (that I recall), so I have attached the proper files and hope I can get some insight.
The only minor change made was that of an added wireless dongle, but without it I am unable to get online.

I do appreciate any help in resolving these issues.

~Thanks in advance

Generic bus timeout error, which appears to be consistent on the primary processor in the 4th memory bank.
Looks like a failing CPU.
Is your CPU overclocked? Do you still have warranty on your CPU? I would highly recommend that you RMA it if you have.

That was what I thought too. I iterate was.

I pulled the cpu and put it into another board (Asus M5A97 LE R2.0) and the problem disappeared. Maybe it is only temporary and the cpu is failing. I haven't had the time to pair a different cpu with the other board yet. This should prove interesting.

I'll post back. That would be nice if it was that low budget board and not the cpu.

by the way? It was an Asrock 960GM-VGS3 FX

I did have a couple questions though. Why wasn't it flagged and as well? The arguments made me think cpu. Kind of new, far from totally new though.

Oh and why all different BSOD's had me rocked too.

Now to fix my symbols. Just a joke.

This tells you it's a board issue. If anything though, you didn't use the board long enough to get a solid answer. How long did you use it for?

 

[griven1]

Here's the joke on the board..2-3 months.

I am going to put a different cpu in that board though, just to test.

 

[Patrick]

So if you used the CPU in a different board for 2-3 months with no crashes, it's clearly a board issue.

Not sure why you're going through other hoops.

 

[griven1]

I think you misunderstood Patrick. The cpu was in the ASRock board for 2-3 months and started crashing. I then put it into the Asus board the day after the original post , which I no longer have any crashes. I just want to test the ASRock board further, mostly out of boredom I think.

I realized my punctuation and sentence structure wasn't all that great on my last post.
