Yea, people need to be aware that the BIOS shipped when the motherboard was originally produced may or may not support your CPU. Or memory for that matter.

The BIOS revision the motherboard was shipped with can be found on a white sticker affixed over/onto the BIOS chip itself on each motherboard.


Glad to hear you got it running Shaun. And thanks for the post too.

We've just finished a Christmas build with H170 Fatal1ty performance, Pentium G4400, Windows 10.
The PC would start and run for 10 to 40 minutes, before crashing. The lovely BSOD.

Tried windows updates and driver updates, no change.

Brain bounce, as I noticed BIOS was level 1.20, but the G4400 is supported with version 1.40 or later. So we've updated to BIOS level 1.60, which is currently the latest ( Jan 4 2016 ), crashing problem solved.

Hope this might help anyone else with a similar problem.
Good computing.
