Help Major Stability Concerns!!!

mysticsniper · 21 Feb 2006 at 19:21

Just recently I am experiating lots of system crashes, and this happens a lot when playing games. I tried the OCCT Test and that stopped because os a stability problems. My system spec is below and I thought it would be helpful if I posted my BIOS Screens and my Power outage as well.

I would like some help if possible, as the biggest worry for me is that when I default back to its original settings, I get the BSOD :confused:

Start with Memtest86 and see how that goes.

Jokester

Ok, cheers for that.

By the way should I have disabled my Thermal Throttling?

Memtest doesn't bring back any errors even on Test 5, the problem now is that my system will boot up and I can access everything, but in about 10 mins after logging in, my system restarts. When I cleared the CMOS then re-booted up all I got was the 'Blue Screen Of Death'. There is another concern that I have tried to back up all my data onto a DVD, but I keep getting read errors, and I have gone through over 10 Blank DVD disks.

Everthing was running so sweet last week and I have made any changes to any of my system, this is the confusing part :confused:

I need an expert on my system, is there anyone out there

Bump.

I have still no idea, whats wrong with my computer, I formatted the HDD, but I keep getting random BSOD's & restarts. I am now leaning towards either my PSU or my HDD itself, but I have done a few chkdsks and they came back with no errors, what other tests can I perform on my HDD and on my PSU, you can see from the first picture of the readings of my PSU, does that tell you anything, cause it looks ok from where I am looking???

From that screen that doesn't appear to be anything wrong with the PSU.

Change LDT/FSB Frequency Ratio from Auto to x4 and give that a go.

Jokester

Thanks for the quick reply, I will try that once I get home from work. BTW is there any HDD tests that I can perform on my WD Raptor to be certain that the problem isn't linked to my HDD

Try Scandisk and also if the disk is SMART use Speedfan to report it's Performance and Fitness.

Jokester

Thanks, have tried both scandisk & Smart from sppedfan, and it tells me everything is ok.

I'm rather tired so excuse me if I've missed something

It looks to me like you're overclocking the CPU? This would be the first point of call to check

Is it unstable with the CPU at stock? If so then we can investigate further - if not, it is an unstable overclock

Boost the volts on your CPU from 1.45 to 1.5V and see if that helps

Its ok mate, I have a more problems running at stock as I just get the BSOD, which makes it even more confusing for me, when trying to resolve this problem, I have tried running at 1.54v, but get the same problem
