HP Recommended
Product: HP4530s
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 7 (32-bit)

Hello guys,

 

I need your advice. I have HP4530s laptop for a few years now. Everything is working fine. I have bought it as already used business laptop. The configuration is the follwing:

Win 7 32 bit, 4 GB RAM, 750 GB WD Black, CPU i5-2410M 2.3 GHz.

In Bios I have noticed that option "Enable Mulitple CPU Core" is disabled i.e. not chosesn. So I have foubd out on the Intel web page that this CPU has 2 Cores and enable 4 Threads :

https://ark.intel.com/products/52224/Intel-Core-i5-2410M-Processor-3M-Cache-up-to-2_90-GHz

So I wanted to try it and enable this option. Windows 7 started without any prblems but after 30-40 sec after loading to Windows BSOD show up with the message: 0x00000124.

In the next rester I received the info that Windows has recovered from serious error and I tried to enable 2 Core also via msconfig -> Boot-> Advanced menu, but I wasn't fast enough. BSOD happened again.

 

Only when diabling the option to use mulitple core, my laptop)works stable again ( I even tyoe this from this laptop).

 

So I doubt that memory is bad, because it has been working for years with this memory, so something has to be connected with the CPU.

Should try to update BIOS?

Any advice would be highly appreciated
