This problem has been going for a while (ever since I installed Windows 7 on this PC): Every once in a while (randomly, with any application), when I use the mouse to left-click & drag (move window, scroll down, etc.), my PC crashes with the following problem signature:

I consulted this Generic "Stop 0x124" Troubleshooting Strategy but nothing helped.
Using BlueScreenView, this was the only information that's available about this BSOD:

As you can see, having the problem reported in the core system (hal + ntoskrnl) is not helpful at all because it doesn't point to a specific driver (mouse? display?) that I can update (if there is one) but rather to the system which is 100% up-to-date.
So it seems that my only hope is to find someone who actually recognizes this problem as having a very specific solution.
Any idea how to fix this problem once and for all?
UPDATE, MONTHS LATER: The problem still persists and it starts to annoy me. So far, it looks like only @Chiyou is in the right direction, so I am posting snapshots from the hardware monitoring driver that I installed specifically for troubleshooting this problem (I don't overclock, nor do I normally need the information provided extra CPU cycles it eats). My system is built around ABIT IP35-PRO:
Which results in what seems to be safe temperatures:
And voltages as well:
Any idea what to tweak?
Bsod 124 is a generic hardware failure and most likely it's from overclocking or a bad vcore or bad psu. Things you can do: revert to stock, up the voltage of cpu, ram or northbridge. Maybe post your psu and box spec so that we can see if it's the psu?
"x124 WHEA_UNCORRECTABLE_ERROR is a GENERAL hardware problem, but in most cases as you said, it's related to an unstable overclock, usually not enough vCore, etc. However, it is not just an overclock problem, or just related to overclocking. x124 can be triggered from failing memory, overheating, etc. Windows passes on the hardware error report in the form of a "stop 0x124" because it can't do anything else once the hardware has signaled an uncorrectable fault condition."
