    While trying to OC my phenom II 1045t today, I had a problem where it black screen'd, fans running, no activity on computer. So I held power till it shut off, and restarted.

    I am running the OC @ around 245 to get 3115MHz. Windows 10 home OS.

    Ever since I am getting random crashes in Chrome, and a front end for emulators called Launchbox-app. About every 3rd time, it will blue screen, and restart.

    I have run prime95 and have CPUID and HWMonitor running, as well, and the fault doesn't happen when testing them, and it doesn't crash when I am playing graphics intensive games for PS2 on my emulator like NFS Most Wanted, or Ratchet and Clank.

    I have had the OC at these exact settings before, with no problems. Then I quit playing games for a while and set it back to stock for a couple of months, before discovering emulators.


    I am getting a IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL and this last time, it had afd.sys at the end.

    Is there a log somewhere I can pull up to show you guys, or try to figure out what the problem is to fix?

    I have updated ALL my drivers.

    Thanks for the help!

    This would indicate that the likely bad driver is related to the networking stack, could be a remnant from an old, uninstalled, security software, possibly some VPN driver...
