    Okay, I will give that a try next weekend.

    Is there any guess as to what may be causing this error? Is it my hardware? Is it related to software?

    With a 0x124 you had it is very difficult to tell.
    A 0x124 usually doesn't give enough information to find out what is the cause but only what the problem is (2 different things, cause and problem)

    A 0x124 is often caused by hardware (hardware, overclocking, overheating, loose cable, etc.), BIOS problems and drivers.
    It is recommended to run the tests below.

    Thank you for the reply. I ran MemTest86+ a week ago without any errors so I shall try the CPU and GPU test now. I will update this post either later today or sometime tomorrow (or over the weekend) with my results.

    I wouldn't update the post, but just post a new reply.
    I won't be notified when a post is edited, only you posted a reply.
    It happens that I don't reply to the thread until the OP let me know he/she is waiting if a post is updated.
