Hi Overclockers,
I have a really annoying issue that I simply cannot put my finger on. Project: HAL9000, Has the following:
MOBO: ASUS ROG Crosshair iv Extreme
CPU: AMD FX-8350 Eight-Core 4GHz Socket AM3+ 125W Black Edition - QVL from 3023
RAM: G Skill 16G(4x4G) DDR3 1600Mhz PC12800 RL 9-9-9-24(CL9Q-16GBXL) - QVL
GPU: Nvidia 6500 128MB
SSD: 4x Samsung 250GB SSD 840 Series- SATA III 6Gbs, 2xnm Toggle DDR 2.0 NAND, 3-Core MDX Controller, 512MB - no raid
HDD: 2x Western Digital 2TB SATA3 64M Black(WD2002FAEX) - no raid
OS: Windows 8 Professional x64
CPUC: Noctua NH-C12P SE14 CPU Cooler
PSU: 700Watt Cooler Master Extreme Plus
Case: Cooler Master Praetorian 730
Computers function: Virtual machine host, using Hyper
Problem: System does a full lock - no mouse movement or keyboard input accepted, hangs indefinitely or BSOD if running for more than 10 minutes.
Things I have done:
Replaced CPU: originally the CPU was an AMD phennom II 3.3GHz 6 core - problem still persists
Tested ram with 16GB corsair vengeance 2133mhz - Problem still persists
Updated BIOS to 3027 (beta / latest) - problem still persists
The XMP profile used - problem still persists
Manually set Ram clock settings - problem still persists.
Stock Bios chosen settings - Problem still persists.
Changed GPU. - The problem still persists.
Lowered ram speed to 1333 - Problem still persists.
Installed windows 7 Ultimate x64 - Blue screens after 15 minutes..
MEMTEST 86+ returns no errors after 8 hours and 5 runs.
On the 1st run in windows 8 and Windows 7 after fresh install, the system runs indefinitely. Ran prime95 for 30 min, 80% loading on the CPU and 100% RAM; while simultaneously running passmarks, burn-in test v6. 0, the system is stable and runs perfectly.
HOWEVER once I do a reboot using win8, second run and subsequent runs; the system locks either on the loading logo or the Seattle login page, or if I login quickly, will lock once the desktop is presented. For win 7 the system will BSOD after 10 or so minutes of browsing reddit.com, bot loads and login are fine..
What are your thoughts?
