    if you enable undervolt in throttlestop then you can get bsod while trying to pick a stable undervolt value. also an undervolt value which is stable now will become unstable later due to cpu degradation and it will cause bsod. also if you use undervolt then the undervolt can still be saved in the memory after you exit throttlestop and it can cause bsod

    if i just use speedshift epp in throttlestop and i leave all the other settings as they are and i leave undervolt off then can throttlestop still cause bsod? can anything remain in the memory after i exit throttlestop if i use it like that?

    Thank you. Interestingly, I don't have this option for "speedshift epp". But I can tell you so much that it depends on your system what happens or what doesn't. What is certain is that each electronic system has its own fixed settings that are stable and that, if left out of these frames, the system can give very unpredictable results, including burnout or a complete failing.
    Question. Why are you using an outdated version?
    The current one is 9.2.0.0 and it is quite different from this ancient version. (I said ancient because it's still really very old).

    throttlestop is a nice little program but basically all the newer I7 come already with turbo boost enable wish is a overclocking mechanism so maybe running throttlestop mite cause conflict in the bios and cause the BSOD crash....but i dont use any over clocking programs so i cant confirm anything.... remove the app and see if u get crashes if u dont u have your answer maybe the program needs to be properly configure in the settings.

    There is no need to remove anything, if it is on, just turn it off. There is a button for that. It also doesn't need to be started with Windows, and then it has no effect on the default settings. It only works when it is turned on.
