damn machine check exception

Post by jackfb13 »

My NEW :evil: computer recently decided to go BSOD on me. This has happend to me before but i have never got a Machine_Check_eception error before and Quite frankly i do not have the slightest on how to fix it...
i recet my CPU from where it was overclocked but that didnt seem to help either. I wiped my HDD and reinstall Tineyxp and it worked for a while but now it is happening again.

Can anyone help me reserect my computer please!
(if you look at my avatar that is exactly how i feel)

And ill play TF2 with any one once it gets fixed.

Before you do any of the steps below, is your machine still under warranty? You could probably get a free replacement.

If it's not under warranty, continue. If you're getting a BSOD under a brand new install, it's got to be a hardware problem. Test your memory (Ultimate Boot CD comes with MemTest86), take one of the sticks of RAM out, unplug all drives but the boot hard drive, and try another power supply. See if you can narrow down which component is causing the problem.
