It appears that I have been able to resolve my BSOD issue. Installed a program called Hot CPU Tester Pro 4.41 and during the first 5 minutes of running the burn in test my pc blue screened twice. Powered down the unit and removed the cpu heat sink. After cleaning the heat sink and cpu reapplied Artic Silver 5 thermal paste following instructions found on their website for Dual core chips. Ran the burn in test again and though it failed 2 test the burn in was able to run for 6 hours without my system crashing. I also have been able to play mkv files and games without blue screening. I hope that this will help someone in the future having that same issue ThirdStarr -- ThirdStarr |

Hi ThirdStarr, I just wanted to say that I have experienced the same frustrating behaviour while playing BF2142. I have applied the Artic Silver paster and it resolved my issue. But the issue has since come back to haunt me and seems to be getting worst with time. I am now considering revamping the cooling for my PC and reapplying some new thermal paste (after cleaning it).
