AN8 Ultra board, updated to Bios 20 and 100% stable with my old Athlon64 3500+ in vista. I have installed a new cpu, an X2 3800+ and am having stability issues now. Vista has bluescreened several times since, seemingly at random, running stable for 3 days and then sudden BSOD, i do not think it is a temperature problem, I have a good HSF on there with AS5 and it did not crash out while running benchmarks or games. I am thinking it has to be either a: a faulty CPU or b: some incompatibility problem with the motherboard and/or the drivers for vista. Any suggestions would be very gratefully received.

Having done a little googling, I find that BCCode 124 is a hardware issue, but cant find anything more specific than that.

Not re-installed Vista yet, hopefully that is a last resort :)
already on high performance, with everything that can turn things off disabled (i hate Monitor to sleep etc).
Vista is Home Prem OEM with all relevant updates to date
