Windows 10: BSOD preceded by computer freezing, DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION

Happens about once a day. Doesn't seem to matter what I'm doing, although recently it has been while using Brave. I had a similar issue before which would happen while using Firefox or Chrome.

I had installed Windows 10 on this machine as soon as it was available - BSODs started late last year. I reinstalled a couple of months ago which fixed it, but I don't want to reinstall again. The machine freezes for a couple of minutes before the BSOD.

Random Freezes and BSOD (DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION)

Hello Matt,

I regret for the inconvenience you are facing with DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION on your system. We will help you with this issue.

I suggest you to unplug all external devices connected to the system and restart the system to check if the issue persists.

Sometimes new hardware can cause blue screen errors. Since you recently added new hardware to your computer, shut down your system, unplug the new hardware, and then restart to check the status.

Many blue screen errors can be resolved by making sure that Windows is up to date. In the search box on the taskbar, enter Windows Update, select Windows Update. On the Windows Update page, select Check for updates.

I suggest you to Run System Maintenance Troubleshooter
and check if it helps:

System Maintenance troubleshooter finds and clean up unused files and shortcuts and performs maintenance tasks.

Follow the steps given below:

• Type Troubleshooting in the
  Search box from the desktop.
• Select the Troubleshooting option.

  System Maintenance.
• Click on Next to perform the
  System Maintenance troubleshooter and follow the steps.

dpc_watchdog_violation

Hi guys. I have been getting freezes that always result in a BSOD with dpc_watchdog_violation on a computer that I just built. I was hoping someone wouldn't mind taking a look at the minidump files for me.

These dump files were generated during crashes that happened while I was trying to follow trouble shooting steps I found in other threads.

Thank you.
