Windows 10: DPC Watchdog Violation BSOD While Watching Youtube

I have been experiencing many BSODs while browsing Youtube videos. They are all of the DPC Watchdog Violation variety. I have searched through this site previously as I know there are many people experiencing the same problem but I felt it would be easier if I provided with my own personal minidump files and computer specs. I have tried some solutions already found on the site with varying success. My most helpful fix only lasted about 4 hours before I saw another BSOD. This should highlight the severity of my problem. I would really appreciate if someone could help me as I have been experiencing this problem for over a month now.

ASUS X555LAB
Intel i5 5200U

If other info is required I can find it if someone directs me to it.

Thanks in advance*Smile

Stop Error Caused by ntoskrnl.exe

I was watching some normal YouTube videos and then my laptop suddenly went to an OSoD (Orange Screen of Death). The stop error was DPC Watchdog Violation and it was caused by ntoskrnl.exe. This is the third time I have seen this error and they all happened
while watching youtube. This is the first time it has been orange however.

 

BSOD- DPC Watchdog violation

Bought a new HP laptop with Windows 10 two weeks ago. Have been getting the BSOD stating DPC Watchdog Violation while watching Youtube. Also happened once with Netflix. Already tried updating all of the drivers in device manager. Here is a link to my
DMP files.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

 

There are no crash dumps in the zip you attached. Please check if there are crash dumps in C:\Windows\Mindump\ or if C:\Windows\memory.dmp exists.

Upload minidumps as an attachment here; if memory.dmp exists, and it was created recently, compress it and upload it to google drive/one drive/<your favorite file host>.

 

Open administrative command prompt and type or copy and paste: slmgr /dlv

Please post an image of the results into the thread or post a share link using one drive or drop box

 

Hi Spectrum I have looked in both the locations you listed but could not find any traces of anything. I know of what you speak of and have used BlueScreenView before to find such files. Recently however, I have not been getting any minidumps on that program either.

 

Hi zbook I have done what you asked but since I am not a computer expert, I would appreciate it if you told me what you were trying to attempt.*Smile

Theres a tool which is used to bypass the activation of microsoft products. If you are sure you did not use a tool like this, maybe a friend or store tech did it without your knowledge.


Rule 4
No piracy or discussion of piracy allowed at all. Such as software, music, videos and other intellectual property violations (e.g. downloading youtube videos locally etc) - it is forum policy that no help shall be given to people who knowingly steal software or services.


One of the main reasons for this is that the act of pirating the software will inevitably change the working of the software and make investigation and repair impossible. Please install a legitimate copy of the software and if you are still experiencing the issue we will be pleased to assist - No further assistance will be provided until we are satisfied that the software is genuine.



Open administrative command prompt and type or copy and paste:
licensingdiag.exe -report "%userprofile%\Desktop\Genuine.txt" -log "%userprofile%\Desktop\repfiles.cab"&del "%userprofile%\Desktop\repfiles.cab" /Q

Hi I am unsure of any illegally obtained software on this computer so I am quite worried as to what is happening at this point.*Shock I have provided the link to the file produced by the command below.

Genuine.txt - Google Drive

 

Now I'm really worried is there some sort of problem?

 

Hi is there anyone that can help me with this I'm thoroughly confused with whats happening now and I would really appreciate some clarification on my BSOD or whatever just happened above.

Please?

 

Are you using ccleaner or some other cleanup program? There should be crash dumps after you experience a bugcheck. Without them it is essentially impossible for us to tell you why you are getting DPC watchdog violations.

Follow this guide to make sure you have crash dumps enabled: Configure Windows 10 to Create Minidump on BSOD Windows 10 BSOD Tutorials

 

There is activation diverting software on the computer.
