Does anybody know what BSOD 0x7F is? I've looked through a couple of overclocking guides and it wasn't in them.
"BSOD codes for overclocking 0x101 = increase vcore 0x124 = increase/decrease QPI/VTT first, if not increase/decrease vcore...have to test to see which one it is on i7 45nm, usually means too little VVT/QPI for the speed of Uncore on i7 32nm SB, usually means too little vCore 0x0A = unstable RAM/IMC, increase QPI first, if that doesn't work increase vcore 0x1A = Memory management error. It usually means a bad stick of Ram. Test with Memtest or whatever you prefer. Try raising your Ram voltage 0x1E = increase vcore 0x3B = increase vcore 0x3D = increase vcore 0xD1 = QPI/VTT, increase/decrease as necessary, can also be unstable Ram, raise Ram voltage 0x9C = QPI/VTT most likely, but increasing vcore has helped in some instances 0x50 = RAM timings/Frequency or uncore multi unstable, increase RAM voltage or adjust QPI/VTT, or lower uncore if you're higher than 2x 0x109 = Not enough or too Much memory voltage 0x116 = Low IOH (NB) voltage, GPU issue (most common when running multi-GPU/overclocking GPU) 0x7E = Corrupted OS file, possibly from overclocking. Run sfc /scannow and chkdsk /r
BSOD Codes for SandyBridge 0x124 = add/remove vcore or QPI/VTT voltage (usually Vcore, once it was QPI/VTT) 0x101 = add more vcore 0x50 = RAM timings/Frequency add DDR3 voltage or add QPI/VTT 0x1E = add more vcore 0x3B = add more vcore 0xD1 = add QPI/VTT voltage “0x9C = QPI/VTT most likely, but increasing vcore has helped in some instances” 0X109 = add DDR3 voltage 0x0A = add QPI/VTT voltage"
Closest one is 0x7E. I'm 100% sure that the code that I'm getting right now is an 'F' not an 'E.'
If its a HTPC, you really don't need to overclock.
I did find a bit of info on the 7f though:

The UNEXPECTED_KERNEL_MODE_TRAP bug check has a value of 0x0000007F. This bug check indicates that the Intel CPU generated a trap and the kernel failed to catch this trap.
1.Download and install updates and device drivers for your computer from Windows Update.
2.Scan your computer for computer viruses.
3.Check your hard disk for errors.
It was replicateable. Nothing would fix it but that. Repaired windows. Reinstalled windows. Increased voltages. Only lowering the multi fixed it. I prefer an alternative solution but I couldn't find any and this is fine as it is
