Title: P55-USB3 Rev 2.0 BSOD 0x00000124 Win7x64
Post by: STCHR on February 07, 2011, 09:39:52 am: Hello

Spec:
i860 I7
P55-USB3 REV 2.0 Bios F9
16 gb Kingston 1333 CL9 (4x4gb) DB sided
XFX5770 1GB .
3 x Seagate 500gb(SATA/ACHI)
1 x SATA Samsung DVD+-(SATA)

I get a BSOD each time i try to cold boot Win7x64......BSOD 0x00000124
Win XP SP3 boots fine...no BSOD...no issue, can load the system 100%, just works fine.

After 10-20 reboots and BSOD´s Win7x64 suddently works ok and runs fine, until 16 hour cool down...it starts all over again.

Tried reinstall but runs into BSOD 0x00000124 after the system cools down, and starts the next day.

also tried to migrate/reinstall from dvd the Win7x64 to another HD....no luck still the same...

Will now test with Win7x86 to see if that runs fine...

BSOD 0x00000124 Help please, need Win7x64 for testing purpose.

A 124 stop code on a BSOD normally means that your memory isnt set correctly and you need to alter your QPI/Vtt setting. It may be set too high or more likely too low. It will probably need to be put somewhere between 1.2v and 1.4v. You will have to play around with it until you get a stable platform.

Boots now.

Could that also been why it "BEEP´s" when running? like every 5-10 minuttes it came with a "BEEP".....
just booted into Win7x64 and it runs ok.

Still beep´s.....

Post by: Dark Mantis on February 07, 2011, 10:17:05 am: I expect your beeps are a totally different problem. For that I would suggest checking the alarm settings in your BIOS probably for the fans or temperature.

Post by: STCHR on February 07, 2011, 11:08:32 am: Hi

Didnt thank you for the quick reply......So thank you.

Ended up with 1.330volts on the ram.....;0)(Eggs and ham....)
Is this system specifik or will this be changed in a new BIOS update?

Have checked.....FAN/TEMP Control etc....
All look fine, any ideas?

Post by: Dark Mantis on February 07, 2011, 11:38:45 am: I doubt if it will be changed as it is one of those things that can be specific to each system. Glad the ham and eggs are finished now!

If you can give me a bit more information on the beeps like how often and how many etc. How soon do they start ? What fans etc have you in your system controlled by the motherboard ?

Post by: Dark Mantis on February 08, 2011, 07:33:47 am: I wouldn't leave the voltage up that high especailly if it isn't even helping.

Can you post your memory settings and uncore, memory multiplier etc here please ?

Post by: STCHR on February 08, 2011, 07:51:08 am: It helps abit , reboots now only 8-10 reboots in Win7x64 before its running.

lowered it to 1.330V again...just before they go red.
XP SP3 still just runs right on a cold boot.

Attached some pictures:

are these the infos you needed?.
Title: Re: P55-USB3 Rev 2.0 BSOD 0x00000124 Win7x64
Post by: Dark Mantis on February 08, 2011, 08:01:02 am: Well your memory frequency is at 10x and yet your Uncore is set at 18x. That should be between 20x and 22x.

As with anything like this you have to adjust more than one setting often.

Post by: STCHR on February 08, 2011, 08:16:24 am: Ok, and how do i change that?

can not find any uncore place to tweek.
see attached picture.

Post by: Dark Mantis on February 08, 2011, 08:56:58 am: As I recall you need to go into the BIOS/MIT/Advanced Frequency Settings/Base Clock(BCLK) Control and enable it. That should give you access to other parameters then.

Post by: STCHR on February 08, 2011, 09:18:24 am: Yes, been there done that, but nothing changes the UNCORE value....

And my CPU is now -33 C........Air cooled....

I smell a bios update....:0)
Title: Re: P55-USB3 Rev 2.0 BSOD 0x00000124 Win7x64
Post by: Dark Mantis on February 08, 2011, 09:57:37 am: Well that is certainly cool running ...especially on air. 8)

I would agree it sounds like a BIOS update is required.

Post by: STCHR on February 08, 2011, 10:31:12 am: Ok, now on -103 C still aircooled... 8)
after each LOAD TO DEFAULT temp, drops -10 c..... what an easy way to cool my system....
so going on -113 C...
Dang, whats newer than F9 for the P55-USB3 REV.2?

I dont follow, you mean?
Title: Re: P55-USB3 Rev 2.0 BSOD 0x00000124 Win7x64
Post by: Dark Mantis on February 08, 2011, 12:30:46 pm: Just joking. LN2 is liquid Nitrogen that is used in extreme overclocking to get the temperature to ones like you have been seeing. The GOOC is Gigabyte's OverClocking Championships. ;D

Post by: STCHR on February 08, 2011, 01:47:23 pm: Ok....back to topic..

whats newer than F9 for the P55-USB3 REV.2?

Will this issue be corrected in the next bios release or do i have to live with these.....

Post by: Dark Mantis on February 08, 2011, 02:03:59 pm: There isn't anything on our site newer than F9 at the moment, however you could try TweakTown http://forums.tweaktown.com/ as they often have beta versions for download.

If not I suggest asking GGTS for help and maybe they can write you a BIOS that has the necessary updates.

Just enter your email address and click on the language of choice.
