I had similar problems with a past configuration. Given that your machine is actually rebooting, and not too many choices for root cause of such behavior, I would initially want you to get a program such as speedfan which can give an accurate temperature per core, not just the overall CPU.
My best guess, given that prime95 runs on a single core only (subject to OS scheduling vagaries such as processor affinity --- but since you are on AMD, affinity is pretty much a given seeing how Windows treats AMD as a NUMA archicture), is that you are actually driving that one core above its internal thermal shutdown limit --- hence the reboot. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Per Jessen Sent: Sunday, March 02, 2008 11:40 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [Prime] mprime stresstests Brian Beesley wrote: > On Sunday 02 March 2008 17:01, Per Jessen wrote: >> >> I know mprime was built for 32bit, but surely it's also reasonable to >> run it on a 64bit machine? >> > I don't have a problem on the only AMD 64-bit CPU I have access to - a > Turion in a laptop. > > Sorry but I can't think of anything else you haven't tried. That's not actually a bad bit of information, Brian. It appears to exclude some sort of weird/basic architectural incompatibility - which I would have had a hard time believing, but still.
