STOP 0x124 BSOD?

[Zak Moon]

I've just put together a new rig, fresh installation of windows 7 (professional 64 bit). I was previously getting BSOD's , but I RMA'd my motherboard and got a brand new one.

However, I've been getting 0x124 BSOD's frequently. I have no idea how to read mini dump files, but I was hoping someone would be able to for me: http://1drv.ms/ZMYiWP

The whole system is completely new, apart from the CPU. I've tried running with a different SSD/HDD and memory sticks, as well as a different motherboard but I was still getting BSOD's. I've also tried stress testing the CPU with prime95, it went for 3 hours and then blue screened.

seeing as the only thing that I've kept the same, I'm starting to think that it could be failing? I've never seen anyone or heard of anyone having to RMA their CPU.

CPU generated a bugcheck because it got a read error from its cache memory controller
processor 2 memory bank 5

your system was up 5 hours before it failed. Make sure it is not a overheating problem.

normally you would disable any overclocking, update your BIOS and install current intel cpu chipset drivers.
This will update your CPU microcode for know CPU bugs. The BIOS update will also set various CPU voltages to corrected defaults.

I did not see any overclock driver or overclock settings.
if you have not added any new hardware or changed BIOS setting then I would look for voltage problems to your CPU.
(mother board voltage regulation or power supply voltage regulation problems)

be sure to update the BIOS or reset the BIOS to defaults and reconfigure.

you also have various driver problems.
3 copies of NTIOLIB_X64.sys running All had differnent file dates 1 from 2010, two from 2012
this driver is a problem
athurx.sys Thu Oct 06 03:10:34 2011 (you will want to update it to current version)
intelppm.sys Mon Jul 13 16:19:25 2009 is pretty old also

Thanks for the information. I've updated my BIOS to the newest version, but I can't find any way to get rid of the NTIOLIB_X64.sys files which are not needed? And the athurx.sys (for my wireless card) is the newest possible I think, it came for my motherboard so I don't expect it to be updated regularly.

I'm not sure how to update the drivers in system32?

NTIOLIB_x64.sys is part of
MSI Afterburner driver (known BSOD issues with Windows) Also found to be a part of MSI Live Update 5
It is overclocking software, I would uninstall it. (most likely cause of your bugcheck 124)
you could also get the microsoft tool called autoruns
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb963902.aspx
it will show all the registry settings that are automatically starting programs in your system.
then you can look at the list and disable or remove programs you don't want to run.

follow this link to get a new athurx.sys driver
http://www.carrona.org/drivers/driver.php?id=athurx.sys
motherboard vendors just fail to keep there copy of the drivers up to date.

http://www.carrona.org/drivers/driver.php?id=intelppm.sys
to get to the intel site and get the intel processor driver.
