Atomic Shrimp - He’s an older British guy that does a variety of videos. Everything from tech related projects, scambating, gardening, hikes, and foraging.
My favorite videos of his are his ‘Weird Stuff in a Can’ videos.
My favorite software acronym is PINCE, the reverse engineering tool that’s similar to Cheat Engine in Winblols, that stands for PINCE Is Not Cheat Engine.
I’ve never seen this particular error, but CPU stall warnings seem like a fairly common thing. I wouldn’t jump straight to hardware fault, but it’s a possibility.
Try stress testing the CPU and RAM. See if you can get it to happen more frequently. Also see if you can disable that CPU core, either in the BIOS or in the OS, to see if the problem goes away.
I’m with catloaf. Consistent CPU soft locks point to a possible bad memory module or CPU.
Clear CMOS.
Try removing one memory module at a time.
See if there is an option to disable hyperthreading in bios.
Another thing to try is to remove the CPU, careful not to damage the LGA pins on the motherboard, and clean the CPU contacts with alcohol. Take care to ground yourself out and the case before handling the CPU out of socket.
In addition to hydration, breathing will help. Take a deep breath in then just keep breathing out. All the way out. Near the bottom of your breath you should find it easier to pee. It’s a nifty trick if you’re a nervous peer or want to empty your bladder when it’s not quite full yet.
Seen this before, and almost always has to do with hardware failure or bad hardware config.
Reset the BIOS/CMOS jumper on the board, go back into BIOS setup and set the proper time. Do not touch the CPU or Memory timings. Boot with the defaults and see if it still happens. Check and update the BIOS if there is a newer version as well.
Next longer steps: test memory, then stress test the CPU. I’d be shocked if it was a storage issue as I haven’t seen that be the culprit, but might was well run the long SMART tests.
Yeah, always check all of this stuff. Server hardware gets a lot more updates than like gamer board BIOS, companies invest high millions, even low billions in this stuff and they expect problems to be address promptly for that kind of cash.
Check for any peripherals or cards, too. RAID, backplanes, networking cards; drivers, firmware, anything.
