I'm reposting this in the Windows 7 section because it's no longer Overclocking related, as I've reverted to stock settings and this keeps happening.
I'm experiencing the weirdest BSOD in my entire time with Windows.
I don't have a screenshot of my error but this looks pretty much the same:
The strange thing is that this BSOD seems to be happening after the system has been idle for some time (20 minutes to a couple of hour), but it doesn't happen all the times; in fact, it happens very rarely (maybe one or two times a month on normal use). I'm able to reproduce it only by repeatedly letting my system go idle but i could not find any additional triggering information.
Event Viewer is also not helping me at all, all i ever found there about this is the exact time the BSOD kicked in. Additionally, no mini-dumps are collected for this BSOD even though they're working (forced another BSOD to test).
Here some system info
- OS: Windows 7 Ultimate x64 SP1 (all Windows updates installed)
- MOBO: ASUS z87 Deluxe
- CPU: Intel 4770k (stock settings, all C states activated, EIST activated)
- RAM: 16 GB g.skill TridentX
- VGA: Nvidia GTS 250 (with latest drivers)
- Main drive: Samsung 830 256GB
The CPU is watercooled and idle core temperatures (which is when this BSOD happens) are around 25-28 °C.
I'm tempted to do a format and OS reinstall, but before going this drastic i would try to understand what is causing this.
