Windows 10: Blue Screen: WIN32K_POWER_WATCHDOG_TIMEOUT and PDC_WATCHDOG_TIMEOUT

Since the beginning of March, I've been getting blue screens, only during the weekend or first thing on Monday morning. They occur when the computer is unattended. That is, when I expect the computer to be sleeping, I look over and see a blue screen instead. In looking at the minidumps, I see that I'm getting two different errors: WIN32K_POWER_WATCHDOG_TIMEOUT and PDC_WATCHDOG_TIMEOUT. My dumps are available here.Searches so far have suggested that the issue is likely related to the graphics drivers. However, the most recent version of the drivers, according to Dell, was installed a month prio

WIN32K_POWER_WATCHDOG_TIMEOUT

I started to get the "WIN32K_POWER_WATCHDOG_TIMEOUT" blue screen a few weeks ago. I have a Surface Pro 4 and a Dell U3415W monitor. They were connected via the Surface Dock with a mini-port cable. When I finally go
through the blue screen restart, the Dell can not be found when it's plugged into the dock. I have been plugging it into the mini-port slot on the Surface.



Sometimes the system starts without a problem and other times the timeout happens. In my normal operations, I would have the Surface closed and only use the Dell. Now it's 50/50 as to whether the Surface is open.

I could use some help getting rid of the "WIN32K_POWER_WATCHDOG_TIMEOUT. "
