| [Unstable] BSOD although P95/Memtest 86+ stable
I have a modest overclock on my rig, nothing to major. P4 3.4 GHz on an Asus P4C800EDLX. The PSU is a tank OCZ Powerstream.
Ext Clock is 225
Multiplier is 14x (Core speed = 3150 so the processor is actually underclocked, im just trying to increase system speed right now)
FSB is 900
and Memory is 450 (OCZ PC4000, DDR 500 - im trying to bring the system up to this speed).
So i ran memtest86+ for 24 hours, stable - no errors. I ran P95 no problems after 24 hours so i assumed stable.
The just now I had a quick BSOD and a restart. It happened right as I opened a video file (which i was not able to find online to test again) extention .avi although im not sure the codec. Windows Media Player said it never closed properly so it disabled optional codecs.
So was it the file or my overclock?
This was in the event viewer for System Error
Error code 100000d1, parameter1 00000000, parameter2 00000002, parameter3 00000000, parameter4 00000000.

Nampa, ID | I was under the impression .AVI files were played through Quicktime, not Media Player... just my thoughts though... |

I'd vote for codec, player or flaky HD, your system sounds solid. |

I've had problems with overclocked cards and video acceleration setting in WMP before. You can tweak the acceleration in WMP and get it working maybe. Never did notice a slowdown when I tried it, but it would work. |

i'd suggest brining everything back to stock, and see if you have that problem again. like others said, it may just be a bad codec or other software.
also, is the BSOD reproducable? |

Check 'Event Viewer" for any errors that may be helpful. |

1 edit | There are some errors over the past few months:
DCOM, IPNATHLP, Dhcp, and Sidebyside.
The IPNATHLP and DHCP seem network related and are not critical. The Sidebyside and DCOM i am not sure about. |
