    Debugging clock_watchdog_timeout


    I hope this is the right place to post this! I've built a new computer recently and continue to get BSOD errors with a clock_watchdog_timeout error. Sometimes the crashes happen 4-5 hours apart, and sometimes they happen every 5-10 minutes. I'm honestly not entirely sure how to debug this issue entirely, so I'm posting some resources fromthis guide. I'm also running driver verifier at the moment and hoping for another crash, but oddly enough the computer has stayed alive for much longer than normal without a crash.


    Per that guide, I've gathered output from msinfo, speccy, and MEMORY.dmp after a crash. I can post more instances of MEMORY.dmp if needed as well. Link is: https://1drv.ms/u/s!Atpzz2lpOYnjg2k2FpUKAT7xPrZm?e=gJKi58


    Many thanks if someone here could help me figure this one out. I'm normally a linux person so definitely not too familiar with debugging Windows issues like this. This wouldn't be as necessary, but if someone is able to figure out what is wrong based on this information I would love to hear how you figured it out!

    :)

    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.
    Code:

    BIOS Version:              American Megatrends Inc. 2001   , 7/8/2011

    Ethernet is showing as Kernel Debug Network Adapater

    Hi,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



    I understand that you see Kernel Debug Network Adapter in Device Manager. This can happen if debugging is turner on. I would suggest you to turn off debugging by following the steps mentioned below:



    1. Type command prompt in the search bar on the
      Taskbar.
    2. Right click on the command prompt icon and select
      Run as administrator.
    3. Paste the following commands and hit Enter:

      bcdedit /debug off


    If you still see the Network Adapter, you can disable it from Device Manager without problems. Refer the steps mentioned below:



    1. Press Windows Logo key + X, to open
      Device Manager.
    2. Expand Network adapters.
    3. Now, right click on the Kernel Debug adapter and select
      Disable device.


    Let us know how it goes.



    Regards,

    Nikhar Khare
