Randomly got this blue screen twice in the last 2 weeks . Ran chkdsk fine, ran the system diagnosis thing and everything passed. Just wondering why this is happening, my OC is rock solid . What do i need to do to keep this from happening again ? Both times it has happened when i have been playing black ops.

code 124 usually means increase vcore what is your voltage at?

everything i have read so far points to that its not vcore but something to do with problems with NTFS?

my vcore right now is 1.295. Has tested for 10 hours + stable in prime95.

Have you checked your crash dumps? The 0x00000124 error is most likely a hardware issue.

Could be bad PCIE slot, bad overclocks etc.

Basically you need to throw everything at it. GPUtool, Memtest x86+, prime/intel burn test and find out what is causing it to die.

code 124 when overclocking is vcore or less likely qpi I would say your core voltage is too low for that overclock anyhow seems low to me ( I could be wrong as I don't have sandy bridge I have a 930) could also be qpiv but I don't think that is the case with sandy bridge chips as the qpi cannot be overclocked

Do you have LLC enabled?

124 is like 99.999% of the CPU related

Here is a reference list ( thanks to GfhTattoo ):

0x101 = increase vcore
0x124 = increase/decrease vcore or QPI/VTT...have to test to see which one it is
0x0A = unstable RAM/IMC, increase QPI first, if that doesn't work increase vcore
0x1E = increase vcore
0x3B = increase vcore
0xD1 = QPI/VTT, increase/decrease as necessary
0x9C = QPI/VTT most likely, but increasing vcore has helped in some instances
0x50 = RAM timings/Frequency or uncore multi unstable, increase RAM voltage or adjust QPI/VTT, or lower uncore if you're higher than 2x
0x116 = Low IOH (NB) voltage, GPU issue (most common when running multi-GPU/overclocking GPU)
0X109 = Not enough or too Much memory voltage

well the odd thing is i have never experienced it during prime testing over night , i just randomly get it sometimes when playing games for an extended period of time.

As for the voltage , i have consistently been dropping down from 1.4v currently at 1.290 , i drop a notch each time i pass a 5 hour go at prime, although i have not prime tested the 1.290 drop just yet. 1.290 might be the lowest vcore possible for this multi, if so i am pretty pleased. I will test today and see if i have any problems.

I think it maybe due to games or bad sectors of Hdd.
Try doing a chkdsk in command prompt if anything pops up

 

[sockpirate]

chkdsk was fine, i think it was the OC , 1.295 failed in a prime test a few hours into it. so i think 1.3v is the lowest vcore for this 4500 OC. Not bad but definitely not that great compared to other chips.

Check your temparatures using open hardware monitor and real temp.

Do a proper cleanup of your cabinet. remove alll dust.

Then your temps will drop by 2-3 c.
