    Bsod "whea_uncorrectable_error (124)"


    Hi, I'm having a hard time figuring out the source of my blue screen on my Gigabyte Aero 14. The bluescreens happen mostly on battery mode, for exemple when I startup the computer, when I unplug the power cord, or when I wake up the computer from sleepmode. In some rare cases it had happened randomly when using the computer plugged in (but most cases when unplugged).
    I'm very happy with this computer otherwise so the situation start to bum me out. I think the problem is probably driver related because I feel like I never had these blue screens before I decided one night to update all of my drivers at once (even the bios) but I cannot find the culprit.
    By the way I don't get any blue screen in windows safe mode, even on battery. I also ran the Intel Processor Diagnostic Tool and everything passed.

    I've attached the diagnostic to my post and added to the zip some crash dumps I analyzed with WinDbg before running the forum diagnostic tool.

    Thanks to anyone who would take time to look into my problem.

    Only two dumps in the zip file, should be more. There are 22 WHEA 124 entries in Event log. Are you running a program like CCleaner to cleanup your hard drive? If so, please stop until this is resolved.

    Both dumps indicate a hardware CPU failure:
    Code:
    WHEA_UNCORRECTABLE_ERROR (124)
    A fatal hardware error has occurred. Parameter 1 identifies the type of error
    source that reported the error. Parameter 2 holds the address of the
    WHEA_ERROR_RECORD structure that describes the error conditon.
    Arguments:
    Arg1: 0000000000000000, Machine Check Exception
    Arg2: ffffa08986814028, Address of the WHEA_ERROR_RECORD structure.
    Arg3: 00000000f60017c0, High order 32-bits of the MCi_STATUS value.
    Arg4: 0000000000040150, Low order 32-bits of the MCi_STATUS value.

    It's possible this is caused by a device driver but unlikely. You can try setting up Driver Verifier as follows to see what it shows:

    ===================================================
    Driver Verifier
    is a diagnostic tool built into Windows 10, it is designed to verify both native Microsoft drivers and third party drivers. Driver Verifier's verification process involves putting heavy stress on drivers with the intention of making bad, outdated, incompatible or misbehaving drivers fail. The required result is a BSOD (Blue Screen of Death) which will generate a crash dump for debugging purposes.
    Machines exposed to Driver Verifier will run very sluggishly due to the stress being applied to the drivers.

    Driver Verifier - Enable and Disable in Windows 10

    Pay close attention to PART TWO and make sure the correct boxes are checked.

    Warning:
    It is not advised to run Driver Verifier for more than 48 hours at a time. Disable Driver Verifier after 48 hours or after receiving a BSOD, whichever happens soonest.

    Always create a Restore Point prior to enabling Driver Verifier.

    What we're looking for is a verifier generated BSOD with a mini dump that will tell us what driver caused it. If you get a BSOD, rerun dm_log_collector and upload the resulting zip file.
    ===================================================

    If this doesn't show anything then you need to start thinking about replacing the motherboard since it's impossible to replace the CPU on a laptop board.

    Thanks for the reply. Yeah some dumps got removed by CCleaner, I only have an SSD so all these dump files can take end up taking a lot of space. I'm going to look into the driver verifier, and guess I'll have to contact Gigabyte if I don't find anything wrong.

    You have a 500GB SSD though, the dumps don't take up that much room, a little over 1MB per. Change your CCleaner setup to not delete minidumps then delete them manually later.

    If the laptop is still under warranty then definitely start the RMA process.
