  1. Can anyone tell me what this WinDbg error means for BSOD "DPC_Watchdog Violation" I get daily?


    I get this error about once a day. I've done the following while troubleshooting:

    1 - Updated Nvidia P2000 Graphics card driver Geforce Experience says up to date

    2 - Updated NIC driver via Motherboard website

    3 - Disabled all audio drivers don't need audio on this system

  2. DPC_WATCHDOG Violation

    Recently, I have been receiving a DPC_WATCHDOG Violation error resulting in a BSOD and eventual restart of my machine. This seems to only happen when I'm watching Netflix, or Hulu, or some other video streaming. At the following location is the two minidump
    files that I have on my machine Minidump Files. Typically, when streaming a video
    the video becomes glitchy and freezes, sound is distorted, or the video just stops playing. Sometimes the video then recontinues, or occasionally it errors out with the DPC_WATCHDOG Violation. Also, I have updated all of my drivers. Any help would be appreciated.
    Thank you

    Can anyone tell me what this WinDbg error means for BSOD "DPC_Watchdog Violation" I get daily?

    BSOD DPC_Watchdog violation on new custom built computer

    Hi,

    since few days I keep having a BSOD type DPC_Watchdog_violation.
    the minidump log file is pointing me to hal.dll and ntoskrnl.exe which i know aren't directly relevant to investigate.

    please find the dump log file, driverreviewreport and systeminfofile in a zip here: bsod.zip

    Hope someone can help me, as
    - I already checked my drivers and everything seems uptodate
    - I ran a chkdsk, nothing
    - I ran a scannow, nothing
    I have one new SSD WD black 512gb (firmware uptodate) + 2x old 4tb hdd and no GPU yet (using integrated one in my cpu).

    Thanks!
