Hi guys I have been getting random BSODs. It says something about a secondary processor missing a clock interval or something.

Any ideas?

Have you disabled your automatic restart so you can read the whole thing, do that then try googling the error code, it should link you to ms tech support, if no joy with that come back and post full details, someone may of encountered it before

yea i disabled that I cant remember the whole code, it just loads of 0s and 1s.

but the description of the BSOD is soemthing of what i wrote above.

Take a photo, with camera phone if needs be, you need the full error code, could be a million and one things

Processor?
Graphics?
OS?

Without that sort of info it's probably just easier to blame it on aliens.

Look for something similar to 0x000000... or a filename or STOP Error (eg IRQL_NOT_LESS_THAN... UNMOUNTABLE_BOOT_VOLUME... stuff like that)
