Good morning,
My brother is getting BSOD errors with his PC when playing intensive 3d games (Total Warhammer).
His specs are:
I ran the "Intel Processor Diagnostic Tool 64Bit" and it failed with:
It is using the retail HSF, but I remember when I built it, I had a bear of a time getting the HSF on...couldn't quite get the 4 posts to click in, but I did get them stable.
Does anyone have a suggestion for an easy mount HSF for this cpu / mobo? I will try remounting it, but I fear we will just run into the same problem.
We are not trying to overclock beyond whatever the bios does automagically.
