Windows 10: BSOD 0x124

Hi there,


Last monday I got a BSOD with error code 0x124. I know this normally means a hardware problem (and sometimes maybe trouble with a driver).


A few facts about my PC (which I build myself):

- It is relatively new (7 weeks old) - MSI Z390 Ace, nVidia GTX 1080, Core i7 9700K, HyperX Predator DDR4 Memory (16 Gb).

- I did not overclock any of the components.

- There was no oveheating problem (there is a led display on the motherboard indicating the temperature which was still 30 degrees C at the time of the BSOD).

- The memory is on the motherboard QVL list.

- WhoCrashed utility said the crash occured in genuine_intel.sys and memory_corruption.sys.


So after the BSOD I ran a lot of tests:

- Intel tool for checking the CPU: no errors

- A few graphics benchmarks for hours: no crash

- Intel Extreme Tuning stresstests for CPU and memory: no errors

- Microsoft's memory diagnosis: no errors


Then I decided to use Memtest86 and after 2 hours during the second pass it gave an error. Then I decided not to use a XMP profile. Again during the second pass after over 2 hours Memtest86 gave an error.

So I thought I had found the culprit.

Since then I have used my system, played games, etc. without any issue or BSOD


But still I decided to put new RAM in my system (G.Skill Ripjaws V, also on the mnotherboard QVL list)). This morning there was the same BSOD 0x124.

So now I am a bit stumped. Of course this RAM could also be bad, but I think that would be a bit improbable. Maybe another component is bad.


The only thing is that both the BSOD last monday and the BSOD this morning occured when I was using the Citrix Workspace App to use the virtual workspace at my work. Of course this could be coïncidence, but It is a but strange that I can use benchmarks and games, but during Citrix workspace I get a BSOD. After this I have worked for a couple of hours in the virtual workspace without any issue.


Are there any suggestions for this issue? Does anyone know of Citrix Workspace App giving the occasional BSOD?


Thanks in advance,

Michel

Getting BSOD 0x124 error

Ignore what everone said here.

0x124 BSOD is usually related to VCCIO (VTT), run Prime95 version 26.6 with custom sizes of 512K to 640K with 50% of your memory for at least 8 hours.

If you get a 0x124 BSOD, increase VCCIO voltage by small steps, run Prime95 again until your stable.

If you pass Prime95 512K to 640K without a BSOD, then its Vcore too low. I'd suggest running IntelBurnTest with 80% of your memory to verify stability (8 to 12 hours).

Oh, and yeah, if this problem appeared all of the sudden, the reason is CPU degradation, you can prevent it by enabling C-States or adjust your overclock to use lower voltages.

 

bsod 0x124 audio driver not starting, wont reinstall

Probably not the answer your looking for but,

0x124 - what it means and what to try

you probably already tried most of that stuff on the list.

 

Help with BSOD

The OverClockers BSOD code list
BSOD code list== 0x124 = increase/decrease QPI/VTT first, if not increase/decrease vcore...have to test to see which one it is
