Could this be Graphics card related about a week ago one night my graphics card kept crashing saying the driver had stopped working. Then after a driver reinstall it was fine. I...

Hi all,

I have just done a new install of Windows 8, do I need to install Intel Management Engine Interface, does it add anything that I need as all devices are installed fine in Device Manager?

Still struggling with this had to drop back down to stock at the minute, I render alot of videos and Premiere has given me two crashes today, as well at the minute I am getting a lot of windows...

Managed to get 13 hours stable at 4.5ghz with 1.368 that droops to 1.360. Way past 1.336 but I didn't run that for 13 hours. Max temp was 70c, not sure if 1.368 is high for 24/7 use. May have to mess...

The thing is though it always gives my CPU more juice than required so I have to use a higher offset. -0.030 is 1.336v under load in windows. When using offset mode at normal clocks I use -0.090 to...

Before I read your reply I had already upped the voltage from 0.040 to 0.030 and it lasted on prime for 4 hours before using a BSOD. Tomorrow I will try what you suggest however it seems like a...

Lasted over a hour and then BSOD with the same secondary processor error, should I go to 0.030 now to test that?

I bought the processor from overclockers.co.uk I ran Prime95 at stock for 1 hour without any BSOD. I am currently testing the overclock at -0.035 instead of -0.040. If this fails I will try what you...

Ok so I tried the stable settings and it gave me a BSOD after about 20 minutes with he same 101 error. I read the blue screen error which was that a secondary processor didn't receive a clock in the...

I know that this is all hypothetical however, I have just reset my bios and I am currently running prime95, if I get a BSOD I am going to change the offset I use from -0.040 to -0.035 and see how...

Will I just make it worse by adding more vcore? Make it degrade faster, it seems fine at stock with Prime 95

Is this likely to be degradation then of the CPU if it is asking for more vcore with the 101 blue screen?

i dont remember the first bsod code but when i googled it people mentioned audio driver error. The second was 124 then after that when running prime 101. Temps even when priming did not go over 70c

Hi all,

I've had a few BSOD today and when doing some intensive applications. So then I decided to run prime 95 and it is giving me 101 error BSOD errors. Could this be degradation as this chip as...

Hi all,

Haven't been having the power cycle problem since manually putting in the Ram timings instead of using the XMS feature, however this morning when I switch the machine on a boot into...

This didn't happen this morning which was nice but I wasn't on the machine for a extended amount last night. I know someone for Asus did comment to say this is normal, however I would like to know...

Thanks will do appreciate your help

Hi back again,

I have now put the manual timings in as it happened again after last night. Seems to occur after a big gaming session to be honest. Press power then wait 5 seconds, power down. Then...

Right I will try the boot settings that you advise, I am running Corsair Vengeance 1866mhz ram on the XMP settings at default 1.50V.

Thanks for the info

Did someone have this problem then and...

Sorry to resurrect this old thread, but I wondered what the conditions are for the motherboard to switch on then power cycle? Last night I was playing Diablo 3, whilst playing I got a black screen...

I have noticed that since I have moved up to the 4.5ghz overclock that when I startup my machine now once I press the power button it will start to power, switch off then back on and all my settings...
