z170 OC Formula Event Viewer Error ?.

Hello,

I've got an event viewer error occuring on every boot, and it has been occuring since before I installed any graphics card. The log shows it occured for the first time before I even typed my computer's name during the Windows 7 x64 install. and I don't know whether to ignore it or not. No crash seems to be associated with it.

Background information. I am RMA'ing a EVGA 980Ti FTW because it is faulty, crashing in Farcry 4 randomly (event viewer showing a TDR referencing nvlddmkm). It also failed EVGA OC Scanner X's PhysX 3 Fluid GPU test with the the same file referenced saying the hardware was not installed or the installation was corrupted. My EVGA 970 FTW performs just fine, though I have not played games extensively with it installed in this system yet.

I've installed, uninstalled, and reinstalled all the latest drivers a couple of times now. At the behest of Asrock tech support, and against my instincts, I stuck the driver CD in and let it install whatever it wanted. I then went about reinstalling all the latest drivers manually after that didn't resolve the event viewer error. I've run passmark's Memtest 86 in UEFI mode and passed all tests. I've run Folding at Home for hours and hours and the system is stable, with only a couple "true" early_unit_end's occuring for the same project number 10xxx on the CPU slot with the core status 72 (114). After investigating that, they could just be normal since there were no machine instability messages. Prime 95 is stable, but I haven't run a marathon of tests with it yet.

thanks
