Windows 10: DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION blue screen

I am facing DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION blue screen error again and again. The issue is with Wifi Adapter i think. My laptop has Wifi adapter Mediatek MT7921. The Blue Screen error occurs 5-6 times a day randomly at any time.

Blue screen: DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION

After a recent updating, my machine has blue screen every 5 - 10 minutes.

The error code is DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION

I saw another post here which suggest to use "iastor.sys". But I don't have that in the driver list. Mine is storahci.sys.

Please advise! Thanks,

 

DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION

Hi Mattie,

The DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION blue screen error can be caused by a variety of hardware, firmware, driver, or software issues. Now, you mentioned that you already changed the IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers to standard. Did you update the driver as well? And also,
are you getting the same blue screen error when you play other games? Or is it only occurring when you play a particular game?
