Windows 10: dpc_watchdog_violation at seemingly random times

Hi forum,

I seem to get the dpc_watchdog_violation error code during my BSOD. I'm getting this BSOD multiple times a day and the last two times (within the last 6 hours) it has occurred whilst watching YouTube videos in full screen on Google Chrome.

I have attached the necessary .zip file.

All help is greatly appreciated and I will be forever in your debt. Thank you!

:)

 

Constant Crashing / BSOD

Hey. I've been having issues with my computer crashing or bluescreening. The time inbetween the crashes are random, and the messages in the BSOD's are seemingly random. If you need anything to help ID the problem, please let me know.

Thanks for your time

 

Video encountering problems at seemingly random intervals

Hi Riley,

Thank you for posting the query on Microsoft Community.

• How are you trying to access it, by using a program or a Video app?
• Do you face the same issue online, by using a browser?

If you are using an app to watch it, then try the suggestions below.

Run the troubleshooter for Windows apps:

Check for updates for apps from Windows Store and install if you find any.

Install Movie Maker and check if it helps.

Hope this helps in resolving the issue. If the issue persists, do get back to us. We will be happy to assist you.

 

The zip file you uploaded is empty.

Try running DM_Log_collector again exactly as instructed.

 

Apologies, don't know what happened there. I've updated the original post with the correct .zip file.

 

Much better, thanks.
