Re: BSOD - 0x124 Win7 x64
Hi,
WHEA_UNCORRECTABLE_ERROR (124)
A fatal hardware error has occurred. This fatal error displays data from the Windows Hardware Error Architecture (WHEA).
If we run an !errrec on the 2nd parameter of the bug check (address of the WER structure) we get the following:
Code:

DCACHEL1_DRD_ERR implies that there was a problem restoring data deferred to the L1 Cache when the instruction was needed.
SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION (3b)
This indicates that an exception happened while executing a routine that transitions from non-privileged code to privileged code.
This error has been linked to excessive paged pool usage and may occur due to user-mode graphics drivers crossing over and passing bad data to the kernel code.

VRF_dtsoftbus01+1360
dtsoftbus01.sys is the Daemon Tools driver. Daemon Tools is a very popular cause of BSOD's in 7/8 based systems. In this case, it appears to have marked an IRP pending but didn't return STATUS_PENDING.
1. Please uninstall Daemon Tools. Alternative imaging programs are: MagicISO, Power ISO, etc.
2. Ensure you have the latest video card drivers. If you are already on the latest video card drivers, uninstall and install a version or a few versions behind the latest to ensure it's not a latest driver only issue. If you have already experimented with the latest video card driver and many previous versions, please give the beta driver for your card a try.
3. Remove and replace Avira with Microsoft Security Essentials for temporary troubleshooting purposes as it may be causing conflicts:
Avira removal - How do I uninstall my Avira product?
MSE - Microsoft Security Essentials - Microsoft Windows
4. Uninstall Samsung Rapid Disk ASAP! Very troublesome.
5. wdcsam64.sys is listed and loaded which is the Western Digital SES (SCSI Enclosure Services) driver. Please remove this software ASAP as it's troublesome and is also not necessary to the functionality of your system.
6. If the above fails, please refer to below....
1. Ensure your temperatures are within standard and nothing's overheating. You can use a program such as Speccy if you'd like to monitor temps -
Speccy - System Information - Free Download
2. Clear your CMOS (or load optimized BIOS defaults) to ensure there's no improper BIOS setting -
How To Clear CMOS (Reset BIOS)
3. Ensure your BIOS is up to date.
4. If all of the above fail, the only left to do is replace your processor as it is faulty.
