    Hello,over the last few days I've been experiencing random BSODs, mostly DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION. I have already used WinDbg to analyze some minidumps and have been able to identifiy some issues among them NVIDIA Broadcast causing issues, however, the most recent crashes have not generated any dumps I know how to handle.I'd appreciate someone who, unlike me, actually knows what they're doing taking a look at the attached, at this point in time most recent crashlog.All my PC's components but the graphics card and PCIE WIFI adapter were bought a few weeks ago, the issues, as far as I can rememb

    Hi,

    It is possible that the error DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION may occur if the iastor.sys driver is incompatible with Windows 10. To isolate your issue, we'd like to gather more information:

    • Have you made any recent changes before this issue occurred?
    • What troubleshooting steps have you done so far?

    Any response will be highly appreciated.

  3. 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,

    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?

    For the mean time, if you haven't tried any further troubleshooting steps, we suggest that you perform the suggested steps from this article:

    Let us know how this turns out for you.
