    Fortnite keeps crashing my pc Clock_WatchDog_Timeout


    I am trying to launch Fortnite and every time i either crash or BSOD. The Code is Watchdog_Timeout. I verified files, did a bunch of stuff but no luck. Ive tried uninstalling and reinstalling the game but no luck there, just lost and don't know where to goI have all new parts including...i9-14900k4070 super64 g DDr5Gigabyte z790 eagle axEvery other game I play works perfectly fine, even GTA5 which I would assume is harder on the PC. Just very confused and need help.

    My pc freezes and crashes while playing fortnite

    As the tilte suggests i have been experiencing my pc freezing and crashing while i play fortnite (havent tested any other games). To begin with ive been experiencing fortnite crashing mid game for the past week. I updated drivers windows 10 and unistalled fortnite and installed it again. After the windows update i think that the problem expanded to my pc freezing and crashing. To save you some time i have Autoruns from a previous crashing issue

    Why does Fortnite, COD Warzone, and Apex Legends keep crashing?

    I did everything on the list for Fortnite but Fortnite is the game that crashes the least so I can't tell if it worked or not. Apex Legends and COD Warzone crashes the most.

    Fortnite keeps crashing my pc Clock_WatchDog_Timeout

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