After reinstalling Windows everything worked fine up until I installed Google Chrome and opened it, Windows froze and I had to reboot.

When I rebooted chrome was uninstalled gain and I just tried playing a basic windows game (Solitaire) and after a minute or so windows froze up again. Then when waiting to log in I got the clock interrupt BSOD. :(

**Edit** It seems that idling on the desktop works fine now but after doing something after being idle causes a reboot.

 

After a restart I managed to get this error report from windows if it helps:

We will need to see the dump file.

Start the computer in safe mode with networking.

Go to C:\Windows\Minidump\121914-37549-01.dmp

Drag it to the desktop.

Zip up the file.

Attach  the zipped file in your next reply.

I don't have the Debugging tools on my computers, so will get help from another member.

In normal mode, can you run IE without getting crashes?

The dump again points to the CPU having issues and such damage is often caused by bad OCing, note what I have highlighted below and for suggested remedial steps see here courtesy of H2SO4 on the Windows Seven Forums.

Should I RMA my CPU and see if that fixes the problem?

Yes, IF, a fail after performing step 7, given that you have tried extensive hardware test. 

"7) As the last of the non-invasive troubleshooting steps, perform a "vanilla" reinstallation of Windows: just the OS itself without any additional applications, games, utilities, updates, or new drivers - NOTHING AT ALL that is not sourced from the Windows 7 disc. Should that fail to mitigate the 0x124 problem, jump to the next steps. Otherwise, if you run the "vanilla" installation long enough to convince yourself that not a single 0x124 crash has occurred, start installing updates and applications slowly, always pausing between successive additions long enough to get a feel for whether the machine is still free from 0x124 crashes. Should the crashing resume, obviously the very last software addition(s) may be somehow linked to the root cause."
