About 2 days ago I began getting bluescreens after I installed Gigabyte's Easy Tune 6, and some window's updates. This was abnormal because I never received a blue screen except I undervoltaged my cpu by too much. I only undervoltaged it by one level or down button, until today everything ran fine until I got the bluescreen with this error. :pfff:

BCCode : 1000008e BCP1 : C0000005 BCP2 : A39BE23A BCP3 : BA50F698
BCP4 : 00000000 OSVer : 5_1_2600 SP : 3_0 Product : 256_1

I don't think its the cpu, because it runs cool...
Any help>?

Thanks :)

I usually get a bluescreen just after I enter my password. When I undervoltaged it too much it was right after the windows loading bar disappears.

???

 

ne ways that was happening to me when i was OC ing my Pentium Dual E2200(2.2 GHZ)

 

finally got the courage to bump my voltage from my current 1.35 to 1.45 and BOOOM, worked well

 

no bluescreened or wierd acting computer lol

 

find the safest MAX voltage ur CPU can handle (ie if it can handle 1.5 try 1.4 first)

 

hope this helps

Well this never happened until I installed some windows updates I'm going to wait for more... I'm scared of up voltaging it because it hovers at 45C which seems very high to me..

I'm gonna flash my bios to see what happens...

I undervolt from 1.325 to 1.2v and never get bluescreens.

45c is not high for idle unless you live in Canada. I idle at 48c undervolted. Idle temps mean nothing, you only need to pay attention to load temps.

That's your problem -- the overclocking/control software that comes with these MBs always causes problems. Just make your settings in the BIOS and you'll be fine.

While load temps are more important, 45C IS a high idle temp and means something is not quite right with the cooling system.
