Help! Prime95 stops working, no crash though?

[HBchevelle68]

Hi all! I am currently Trying to overclock my i7-3770K to 4.3

It was running for at 2 hours and 45 min and then Prime95 ran into an error and windows caused it to close, everything else was running fine, no crash, nothin, temps were well within range (at about 71C)

Was this P95's fault? or does this mean the OC is unstable?

Why not test it again and see if you have the same problem again?

I did, as soon as I realized it I started prime95 again which was about 35 min ago. I just wanted to see is anyone knew exactly what happened cause I am very new to overclocking

It's impossible to say, since you don't have exact error. But in the way that your describe the error seems more a Windows problems that an instability problem...

Ya I sorta thought so as well but wanted to get some 2nd opinions
