Hey, a friend of mine gave me a computer to fix. It was fixed once in the summer when its' motherboard was switched. Now it is almost unable to boot itself, often running into loops. The main bsod seems to be
0x00000101 (00000061,00000000,807C2120,00000001)
A clock interrupt was mentioned in the bsod.
Googled a bit and it suggests processor failures.
Specs:
Windows 7 Ultimate SP1 32-bit
Pentium Dual Core E5200 2,5GHz

I ran chkdsk /f and doing sfc /scannow, at the moment no crashes have occurred.

Always happy to help but to do so we need help from yourself 

 

1. Copy any dmp files from C:\Windows\Minidump onto the desktop.

2. Select all of them, right-click on one, and click on Send To> New Compressed (zipped) Folder.

3. Upload the zip folder using the Attach button, bottom left of the dialogue input box 

 

May I also ask that as a sign of appreciation for our free help that you let us know when you no longer require assistance and not leave the thread hanging, thank you

I am sorry for that I had left my other thread hanging a lot and closed it now.
As for the minidumps, they should be added in the first post.

I found an additional BSOD:
0x00000124

Please attach the dump files as detailed in my reply # 2, rar are not used here.

[rei158]

My bad. Sorry =)

The last three dumps point towards a problem with the CPU, some info here

 

If the system has or is being overclocked, go into the BIOS and restore the MBs default factory settings and test, please note that overclocking can seriously damage hardware and no amount of remedial steps would be able to put this right.

 

Going offline shortly as I have an early start but will check back asap tomorrow, hopefully another member may step in meanwhile.

[rei158]

This computer is mostly used for browsing the net, storing pictures, printing, etc so it has not been overclocked.

While in the BIOS, I only had 2 options: Optimized and Fail-Safe settings, so I tried both:

1) Optimized settings - every boot ended with a crash after loading the Windows logo, once it made it to Desktop but crashed in a moment.

 

2) Fail-Safe settings - boots work half the times so I am able to be on the desktop for some time.

 

Tomorrow I will be back afternoon, about 16:00 or even later in my timezone +02:00.

Good night.

Fail-Safe settings - boots work half the times so I am able to be on the desktop for some time.

 

 

The above settings are the correct ones, "optimized" settings are a form of overclocking which as you have found already causes instability.

 

Any more crashes since restoring the "fail safe" settings.

 

Download then run Speccy (free) and post the resultant url for us, details here,  this will provide us with information about your computer hardware + any software that you have installed that may explain the present issue/s. 

 

JAFYI: Checked another dump from Sunday Nov 1st  which again points toward the CPU, there is an outside chance that the problem is driver related, Speccy may shed some light on if it is.

Any more crashes since restoring the "fail safe" settings.

 

[rei158]

Yeah,half of the boots crash and it crashes in desktop too but sometimes i'm
able to watch a 20min video

[phillpower2]

Nothing untoward showing in Speccy so will suggest a couple of things for you to do, quickest one first, download and run IntelBurnTest 2.54 (free) from here to stress test your CPU and Ram, please disregard any other product or service that may be offered at the link.

[rei158]

Hey, on both times, when my computer didn't freeze from the test or from it's fault itself, the test failed after 2 minitests.
It said that the processor is unstable.

So does this mean I need to buy a new processor?

EDIT: Updated one of the logs, it was a wrong one.

[phillpower2]

It doesn't look good but it could be the CPU socket** or even the power supply to the socket causing the instability.

 

Are you able to run any of the other tests.

 

Another test you can try is Prime 95, you can get the 32-bit version from the 64-bit link here

 

** MBs are more prone to failure than CPUs and the most common cause of CPU failure is extreme or overclocking gone bad.

[rei158]

On the first go, both workers #1 and #2 failed soon enough and encountered hardware errors.

On the second go, worker #2 failed, but but #1 kept working for quite a long time after failing eventually.

 

Included the results file.
