Windows 10: CLOCK_WATCHDOG_TIMEOUT

Hi Guys,


I bought a brand new PC and installed windows 10 via bootable USB. After tethering my phone to it and usingthe internet/downloading for a bit, I would get the "CLOCK_WATCHDOG_TIMEOUT". I would use my pc without tethering and it did not crash at allalbeit I didn't really do much. Thinking it was the tethering, I bought internet for my house and am now with internet via Ethernet. I still get the BSOD. A few reformats later, I'm getting BSOD's while unplugged off the internet... So now I have no idea.


Can someone inspect the dump file for me please?

CLOCK_WATCHDOG_TIMEOUT After Leaving PC for 5-10 Minutes


Daemon tools, Alcohol 120% and Power Archiver Pro uses SCSI Pass Through Direct (SPTD), which is a well known cause for BSOD's.
Please remove Daemon Tools and run the SPTD pass through remover.

1. Uninstall Daemon Tools
2. Download the SPTD standalone installer and follow these steps:
   • Double click the executable to open it
   • Click on the button shown below

If the button is grayed out, like in the image, there is no more SPTD installation on your system, and you can close the window.

The 0x101(CLOCK_WATCHDOG_TIMEOUT) is mostly caused by BIOS or hardware problem, the challenge is to find software problems.
I suggest to update your BIOS.

Hi Charlie,

The CLOCK_WATCHDOG_TIMEOUT error can be caused by a faulty processor. This error may also be triggered by an outdated driver. To isolate your concern, we suggest that you consider the following:

• Ensure that your CPU's temperature is within standard and nothing is overheating.
  
• Clear your CMOS (or load optimized BIOS defaults) to ensure there's no improper BIOS setting or to clear overclock settings.
  
• Update your BIOS.
• Run
  Windows Update to install the latest driver on your system.

Note: For steps 2 & 3, it's best to get an assistance from your system manufacturer to ensure that all settings will be properly configured.

Feel free to post back if you encounter any challenges along the process.
