Hi Guys, This problem has plagued me since I got this PC and its been driving me up the wall. Ive sent the PC back twice now and both times they have installed another HDD as it has failed to boot. Great, So its now booting. Second issue is that since I have had the PC it BSOD every time (Without Fail) I get into a game and have been playing it for a short period. So this is the problem that needs fixing. Ive expressed my concern that the motherboard RAM slots maybe struggling or the RAM itself. I play Games like Wow, Titanfall, Call of Duty and my PC runs them fine, infact runs them great. And then stalls and BSOD. Sorry if im in not explaining myself well its just getting me down. Im no PC expert but i like to think in order to diagnose a problem it must be tested in the manner it is failing. Ive updated all drivers. Just no idea what to do as now everytime i feel i send it back to PCS i'm going to get a replacement HDD and a wipe down. The problem mainly occurs on wow when i go from a loading screen. I know its expensive to Replace motherboards and RAM but clearly now they can see my PC isnt working. It was on for 16 hours in quality control. But gaming it will be on for max 2 hours.

Thanks to anyone listening to me Waffling on, Its just ive wanted a nice RIG since i started gaming. I get one and it just isn't working.

Thanks Again

Tom

I have the fx-6200 processor (my pc was made by myself, not PC specialist) and was having bsod issues, it was very easy to fix for me. Try this, go into your bios and turn off turbo core, as soon as I did that it fixed it. I read it online and it seems a few people have had it.

Hope this works for you as well :)

Ill give it a go mate, What where the errors you were getting? Just seems like whenever pc is trying to do somthing it crashes. Always at a loading screen for World of Warcraft. Not in open play.

I've forgotten what the errors were, it was over a year ago now so I'm not sure. Best to give it a go and then continue from there :) Tell me if it fixes it!

So how do I turn the turbo core off in the Bios pal? Where abouts is it?

Each motherboard will have a different Bios, I have a crappy Asus motherboard, on mine I go "Advanced", "JumperFree Configuration", "AMD Turbo CORE technology" and then select disabled.

Should be able to google your motherboard and find out how to do it, if not then just look through the bios options until you find it :)

Tried it mate, Still the PC is BSOD ive sent it back for the 3rd time now...... See what happens. Just think a new build is in order as i dont want the warranty to expire and im paying alot of money for it. Plus ive bought alot of games that theres no point downloading on to it again if i know its just going to have to be sent back.
