Windows 10: BSOD watching Youtube Video, DPC Watchdog Violation

In the couple past of days after Windows 10 updated by itself, my computer has been crashing every hour while I'm attempting to watch some youtube videos. This is getting out of hand and I have no idea what to do to fix this.

Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!

DPC Watchdog Violation

So it's been a few days since I last had a BSOD but today when I was watching a YouTube video I got the DPC Watchdog Violation blue screen again.

DPC Watchdog Violation while watching youtube videos

So I was watching a youtube video on Chrome when I encountered a BSOD that listed the DPC Watchdog violation as the cause. I have no idea how to fix it. I have the dump file attached below. Thank you.

The zip file you uploaded is empty. Make sure you follow the directions exactly as written:

Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) Posting Instructions

 

I did follow the directions exactly as stated but, somehow in the end the files weren't inside the zip file. I updated my main post with a new zip file, check it out.

 

That's better, thanks.

Dump from 10/12 at 5:13PM indicates a problem with athr.sys.
Code: BugCheck 133, {0, 501, 500, 0} Unable to load image \SystemRoot\System32\drivers\athr.sys, Win32 error 0n2 *** WARNING: Unable to verify timestamp for athr.sys *** ERROR: Module load completed but symbols could not be loaded for athr.sys Probably caused by : athr.sys ( athr+22e2f )[/quote] That belongs to your Atheros Extensible Wireless LAN device driver which is old: Mon Oct 05 12:31:48 2009
There is a newer, though not recent, driver on the Acer web site for your computer:
Atheros AR5B91 Wireless Network Adapter

Attachment 106753

There may be newer drivers available but a quick search did not find any.

 

Hi.
I have similar problem. Whenever I play youtube video, video freezes, i hear kind of drilling machine sound. Almost in half of the situations it restarts. Sometimes it continues to work normal after 10 seconds. I sent the laptop for warranty, they simply restore and give it back. Its frustrating because it is happening almost all the time.

 

Hi mstfkpin,

It can be confusing to have multiple zips within one thread.
Please create a new thread.
The logs in your zip are in a foreign language and cannot be scanned or read.
Please use English as the default language so that the logs can be troubleshooted.

@mstfkpln it is always better to create a new thread.

I already know what you problem is though - you will find the solution by reading the following thread:
