I7 rig freezes...............ALOT!!!!!!!

You have had a number of suggestions, but it's all pretty random stuff. Time to dig in, roll up your sleeves, and get to work gathering data.

Download and run CPU-Z. take screenshots of each of the tabs, and post them. This will give us some of the hardware data.

Download and use Real Temp and Hardware Monitor. Use these to keep track of temps, and let us know what they are.

Open your device manager and look for any problems.

Once you have that done we'll be able to talk troubleshooting better.

You don't. Use some image hosting service.

do not make vista 64 download its auto driver updtaes take them manually and turn off auto update. Do this when vista has finnsihed to install

my rig used freeze alot too due to vistas auto driver download.

OK there is your first problem. Your memory is not set to any known configuration.

Look at the SPD tab.

You should be at 7-8-8-19 and 1.5V

The SPD tab shows what the actual settings are supposed to be. Your RAM is currently running at 510Mhz... but that leads me to the next thing. Your CPU is overclocked.

You should have it at stock settings for now. I'm no expert on i7, but I'm pretty sure you are supposed to be at 133Mhz x 20, not 170Mhz x 18.... That's why your memory frequency doesn't exactly match the SPD tab. Different core bus speeds.

No wonder your CPU is on the warm side and your system is not stable.

i changed the settings to7-8-8-19 and 1.5V and have been running p95 for just under an hour which is the best ive seen it do since i built it

Yeah. You need to do it right. Get everything working at correct settings then ask the OC experts. I am an OC amateur.

I tried running p95 and realtemp over night on bclk 133 but when i woke up the screen was frozen on 2hrs 10mins so ive reverted back to 170 and im trying again, is there anyway to tell what happened at the time it froze to know what is causing the problem?

Thanks
