Every time i'm playing some games, all crashes after an hour with the blue screen error CLOCK_WATCHDOG_TIMEOUT.
Some say its a problem with overclocking but i don't know what i can do against it because its pretty annoying with the time.

I hope u can help me :)

Try updating your bios. Sometimes this error is a warning that one of your hardware is failing

Have you overclocked your PC? To what clockspeeds did you get it to? In my case, I had to up the CPU Core Voltage so Windows stopped crashing.

The problem is i cant overclock my cpu because it happens automaticly andi dont know where i can turn it off or on :D

i already looked in my bios but i havent found it yet :)

Have you touched you BIOS settings at all? If so, reset your BIOS settings to default, and try it.
