    BSOD Machine Check Exception


    I am getting a BSOD issue generally when playing games on my pc. The error code is usually Machine_Check_Exception and it comes up somewhat randomly after playing for a bit. Sometimes I can play for an hour with no issues sometimes it will come up after on few minutes of play. It will also occasionally happen immediately(Within 30 Seconds) of starting up after another BSOD. Any help would be dope.

    UPDATE: A few minutes after posting this while not gaming I had another BSOD the code was WHEA_UNCORRECTABLE_ERROR.

    Hello TPBlaster,

    Welcome to Tenforums :)

    Everytime you get a BSOD there is a new mini-dump file created. We need to be able to see these so please post a new set of logfiles.

    Many thanks!

    These are usually related to hardware errors, the most recent one is a bugcheck 0x124 and we can examine the Machine Check Exception (see below). The CPU reports the error as a data cache Level 0 write error but finding the cause is difficult.

    We can also check for any thermal zones and from the info we read the actual temperatures recorded. There were two thermal zones, the temperature values are in Kelvin but in this case do not indicate any cause for concern.

    We can see that your motherboard BIOS can be updated:
    Current BIOS: Version 1602
    New BIOS available: Version 2103

    I therefore suggest you update the BIOS to see if it will improve things.


    In your event log you have many, many errors relating to the Intel Energy Checker service. I suggest you remove this while troubleshooting.
