    BSOD random restarts on new hardware, error 0x00000124


    Hi guys. Please help if you can.

    Problem:
    For some reason my computer reboots randomly. It happens under load after five hours of work, or after two minutes after booting into Windows. I get the following BSODs (.dmp files in the attachment):

    • WHEA_UNCORRECTABLE_ERROR (most of the time): The bugcheck was: 0x00000124
    • DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL (only once so far): The bugcheck was: 0x000000d1

    I was trying to debug the problem myself using WinDbg and .dmp files from the C:\Windows\Minidump folder, but failed to resolve symbol issues:
    • *** WARNING: Unable to verify timestamp for ntoskrnl.exe
    • *** ERROR: Module load completed but symbols could not be loaded for ntoskrnl.exe

    This debugging problem drives me crazy... tried many things but nothing works. Nevertheless, I need to find out what is failing and not how to debug Windows dump files. So, could anyone please help me to read these files and tell what is inside them? I guess they should more or less point to the problem.

    Additional information:
    I constantly monitor the temperatures and the voltages on the mainboard and the CPU and they are stable, meaning that the voltages are not dropping under load and the CPU temperature is never critical (also immediately goes back to idle temperature when finished working). I also tried CPU stress tests and memory tests. Both seems to be working.From what I read so far it should be a hardware issue (WHEA_UNCORRECTABLE_ERROR), but it would be nice to know what exactly is failing. Another argument for hardware theory: Linux also fails on the same set up but there is nothing in the logs, while Windows outputs a BSOD (appreciate it, thanks Windows:)).

    Configuration:
    Minimum set up. All hardware is brand new.

    Windows 10 Pro 64, 10.0.14393
    i7-7700K 4.2GHz processor
    Asus z270g mainboard with the latest BIOS 0906
    Corsair RM750x PSU
    Noctua NH D9L cooler
    G.Skill F4 DDR4 2133MHz RAM (2x8GB)
    250 GB Samsung 850EVO SSD
    NO GPU

    Just reading the .dmp files would already be a great help. Thank you.

    That error is usually caused by a faulting driver or hardware that is failing, as you stated.

    You are running the Anniversary Update of Windows 10. Is this a clean install of Windows, or did you start from an earlier version of Windows and upgrade.

    Is the firmware on your SSD up to date? I've had an issue before where I had a hard drive that would stop responding and would cause this error.

    How many sticks of RAM do you have? If you have 2 or more, remove and reseat your RAM sticks and test. If the BSOD still occurs, you may want to remove sticks, and keep one installed. If removing sticks fixes your issue, then you may need to do a memtest to determine which RAM stick is bad.

    If that doesn't solve your issue, then you may be looking at a possible PSU issue. As it seems, I wouldn't think there would be a problem with the motherboard.

    Looks like a lot of testing to be done here.

    All drivers are up to date. This is a clean install of Windows 10 with the few updates on top. I purchased this version a long time ago. Not sure if it matters.

    Just updated the firmware of my SSD. I will keep this setup for now and proceed with RAM tests if it fails. There are two sticks of RAM (2x8GB).

    It actually feels a bit like a power issue, but the PSU is not even getting hot under load which I guess indicates that there is more than enough power for all the components.

    Anyway, thanks for your quick reply. It would be very nice to see the .dmp contents though.

    I do apologize as I'm unable to view the .Dmp as I'm using my phone to access the forum and I dont have a program to open a zip file. I'll try to open it on my computer in a few days, as I'm unable to do it right now.

    At this point, I was trying to help as I fixed a PC with this Particular error. This was on an older ASUS M2N68 AM Plus with an AMD Phenom X4 9850.

    Funny thing is, I remember when I bought an old Mach Speed P4MSD-800D2 With an Intel Celeron Dual Core, with Windows XP/Vista/7, and with all operating systems, I got the message that the PC shut down due to an uncorrectable error, and come to find out that the board had a bad BIOS on it. Mach Speed only had 1 bios for that board, and the only way to reset the BIOS was to send it to them. They unfortunately went out of business, so I junked the board after it started bluescreening after 5 minutes of turning it on and nothing helped. So I've had my bad share of hardware.

    Hope you're issues get fixed

    Haha, I hope Asus will not go out of business anytime soon:) I need them to replace my motherboard in case this one is faulty.

    Thanks for your help anyway!

    In the meantime, one guy that I know agreed to help me with the dump files and possibly find out the problem. I will keep this post updated.

    Caught BSOD again today. Any ideas what should I pay attention to?

    How long did it take for this bsod to occur?

    It took around 3 hours.

    Also checked my RAM with Memtest86+. It does 15 passes without any errors.

    At the moment I am waiting for the next BSOD to appear to get the complete MEMORY.DMP file.

    Prime95: 2 hour blend stress test.Driver Verifier: no errors
    FurMark 2 hours Intel Hd Graphics 630 test: no errors (just in case)

    Some people report that asus BIOS interface software could cause uncorrectable error (e.g. AI Suite, Aura etc). Removed all this software and since then no BSODs yet.

    According to the dmp, your BSOD is being caused by a faulty CPU. There appears to be an issue with either data releasing from the cache, or a problem over time causing the integrated GPU on the CPU to fail.

    I done more research to confirm this, and it appears this has been a problem with some 7700Ks and also with the 6700k.

    Failure error is 0x124, which points to CPU failure.

    You may want to begin a RMA on the CPU.
