  1. BSOD DPC_WATCHDOG_Violation error when ever I am gaming


    Hello,My PC is randomly getting bluescreen of death with the error DPC watchdog violation, whenever I am gaming. I did some research into this issue and I updated all my drivers, used DDU to uninstall my graphics driver then I reinstalled the latest one NVIDIA using clean install, yet I am still crashing randomly. Any ideas?Here is my minidump file from my latest crash, https://www.mediafire.com/file/w895u7ktbmhdrb8/041925-17921-01.dmp/filePlease and thank you for the helpV/RAmaury Rivera

    BSOD and Reboots when Running Games - 0x00000133 and DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION Errors

    I'm experiencing frustrating issues with my Windows 11 system, where it consistently blue screens or restarts whenever I try to run any game. I've tried different games, but the result is always the same.

    Error Messages:

    After digging through the Event Viewer, I found the following error messages:

    • "The computer has rebooted from a bugcheck. The bugcheck was: 0x00000133 (0x0000000000000001, 0x0000000000001e00, 0xfffff8045691c340, 0x0000000000000000)"
    • Occasionally, I also get a BSOD with the error code "DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION"
    Dump File:

    I've uploaded the dump file from the latest crash to Google Drive: 050324-10796-01.dmp

    Troubleshooting Attempts:

    So far, I've tried:

    • Updating my graphics drivers to the latest version
    • Running a System File Checker (SFC) scan to ensure system file integrity
    • Ensuring my system is up-to-date with the latest Windows updates
    • Performing a system restore to a previous point, but the issue persists
    Despite these efforts, the problem remains. I'd greatly appreciate any guidance on how to resolve this issue and get back to gaming smoothly.

    System Specs:

    • Acer Nitro 5 AN515-45 laptop
    • Ryzen 7 5800H processor
    • NVIDIA RTX 3060 graphics
    • 16 GB RAM
    • 500 GB SSD
    Any help will be much appreciated!

    DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION

    Hi Mattie,

    The DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION blue screen error can be caused by a variety of hardware, firmware, driver, or software issues. Now, you mentioned that you already changed the IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers to standard. Did you update the driver as well? And also,
    are you getting the same blue screen error when you play other games? Or is it only occurring when you play a particular game?

    For the mean time, if you haven't tried any further troubleshooting steps, we suggest that you perform the suggested steps from this article:
