Hello community,

First sorry for my bad english.

My problem is that my system is not stable. I tested my system with LynX, Prime95 and IntelBurnTest. Every test was stopped by systemerrors.

Only Memtest was able to run without errors.

What`s wrong with my System? Is my CPU damaged or broken?

My system:

Can you do a install of win 7 on a HDD for testing?

What for?

Those stress utylities don't stress HDD or even SSD.

You say your getting "systemerrors" and not a BSOD which to me sounds like the OS didn't install properly so installing a OS on a HDD to not wear your SSD out just to see if thats what it is.

Or by "systemerrors" you mean you are getting a BSOD and your computer restarts when you run these tests?

No, i have no BSODs. The stress utylities notify errors during stresstests.

Do you really think the OS is not prperly working? In that case i would have BSOD ?!

If your CPU was damaged or broken how are you even booting in to windows? Do normal programs run ok?

Since you say Memtest was able to run without errors then thats the RAM checked out.

Thank you so far for helping me.

Other programms, that I use are running well and without problems.

Only Opera had starting problems (3 or 4 times til yet. My System is nearly 2 months old).

I try to get somebody from Intel Techsupport on phone. Tommorrow i mean.

I'm not familiar with Opera, but I would start by contacting them. it is possible the application is not optimized to run on this system.

RAM was uncompatible to MB. I changed my RAM and everything is fine.

Please close this thread.
