Phenom 940 @ 3.3ghz prime stable windows locks?

[topslop1]

I'm overclcoking a Phenom 940 @ 3.3ghz and I ran prime 95 for 12 hours today without a hitch. It locked up once or twice in windows while multi tasking and running a video. It's on a Biostar TA790GXB A2+ motherboard.

I've been getting this recently as well with my Phenom @ 3GHz. It always seems to happen when I'm watching a video with some media player and something else is running in the background.

prime blend stable? Maybe your ram is to blame

I used to hear this issue with original Phenoms.

it's not the cpu, i'm almost certain that it's your memory. Test it

Was there a fix for it?
