    BSOD - with DPC Watchdog violation plus Driver Power State Failure


    Sigh... a brand new build on new components. Have a dual boot - works brilliantly in Win 7 (no errors) but fails mostly upon boot up in Win 10.

    Crash dump analysis shows 7 dump files with 6 DPC Watchdog violations and 1 one Driver Power State Failure. Using WhoCrashed shows module ntkrnlmp.exe as likely culprit.

    I am at a loss. Machine works great in Win 7 but is all sadness and woe in Win 10.

    The debug file is loaded - and now?

    Your help will be appreciated.

    :)

  2. windows 10 restarts after anniversary update

    The message on the BSOD states:

    DPC watchdog violation

    I had a look to the memory dump, and found a message telling that the

    problem is likely to be caused by nvstor.sys.

    I tried to update this driver, but it seems to be up to date.

    BSOD - with DPC Watchdog violation plus Driver Power State Failure

    Hi askelly35,

    Welcome to the 10forums *Smile

    The crashes seem to be caused by 2 very old drivers which are from your Ideazon Merc Stealth USB Human Interface Device keyboard.
    My suggestion is to update the drivers or remove the keyboard.

    Remove keyboard? But I love my keyboard.... well, maybe I will love it only in Win 7..

    Will give removal a try.

    (and thanks for such a quick response!!)

    The drivers of your keyboard are ~9 years old, outdated drivers may give various of problems, assuming the drivers aren't updated anymore the best suggestion I can give is to not use it in Windows 10.

    Well, a little googling and I found keyboard drivers that are Win7 vintage. So far no more BSOD *Smile

    I'm optimistic that this is the solve I needed.

    Thanks for pointing me in the right direction - would not have got there without you.

    Cheers..

    EDIT: the drivers needed at least an update, they were dated for Windows Vista.
