Hello community!
I changed some components of my computer less than a year ago, mainly my CPU, my RAM memories and SSD. Initially it looked as if everything was doing just fine after installing the main drivers, but after some minutes, most of the times before 1 minute, my computer shuts down with blue screen saying "A clock interrupt was not received on a secondary processor within the allocate time interval." Looked like a CPU error but after searching for a while in Internet, it looked like it was just a problem with the audio drivers (because I have 3 audio drivers, which 2 of them used to "collide") and the solution was changing the audio drivers to the newest versions from the official website.
After all this time (almost a year) it went pretty well and almost never had any error of shutting down or freezing again (well, my PC froze once but it was only once, and I doubt that it had any relation with this).
Anyways, about a week ago my PC started to shut down alone again, and I found the very same error again, weird because I don't think I have changed anything. I have the suspicion that may one of those updates of the AMD Radeon graphic driver with the newest update reminder (but I kinda doubt it at the same time because it always shows that there is a new update but when I accept the update it says that my driver is already up to date, and also doubt that it updates the audio one).
Here there is the photo of the error:
And here, my audio drivers (I thought that I only had 3, but many others from Microsoft popped up when I opened the device manager here on Safe Mode). The 3 audio drivers info are shown in case that it can help:
As of extra info, I haven't connected any new hardware, haven't downloaded any new driver or suspicious software, the last thing I downloaded that may help to know the problem better was VirtualBox with Unix, because they asked us to do that on my University class of programming (Cs50 education program and stuff), don't know if has anything to do with it. Anyways I think I'll stop using it because I don't like it too much.
I also downloaded all the Windows Updates I could, because I read that there was a Update that fixes some CPU problems somewhere there.
At this point that I have my Computer formatted with only Windows 7 installed and the motherboard drivers with the audio drivers that may be causing trouble, but I don't know if I'm using the correct ones in order to make them to stop colliding, I disabled the AMD HD audio one but it keeps shutting down (but it's not in less than a minute, this time it's more like 30 min at least).
By the way, my CPU is a AMD FX-6300 Six Core x 3,5 GHz (AM3+), my BIOS is updated to the lastest version (it's kinda old, the lastest version is from 2013 I think), the settings of the BIOS are at default I think. My CPU is not overclocked (or at least it says auto) and I think the voltage is correct (I'm not sure about this)
So yeah, if you can help me to fix this I'd be very grateful! If you can tell me what drivers should I use, or what my BIOS configuration should be, that may help a lot! And please, I need help quickly because I need to study and for that I need my computer running without interruptions!
Many thanks for reading!
