Windows 10: Laptop Freezes & BSODs: CLOCK_WATCHDOG_TIMEOUT, MACHINE_CHECK_EXCEPTION,...

Hello Community,I recently purchased a brand-new ASUS ROG Strix G18 laptop with excellent specs, but I’ve been facing frustrating and recurring issues, including Blue Screens of Death BSOD and complete system freezes. These problems occur far too often, even after reinstalling Windows 11 fresh copy, which I hoped would resolve the situation.Here’s the context:The laptop sometimes freezes completely when idle, requiring a forced shutdown via the power button.I’ve also noticed BSODs during active usage, especially when working in Visual Studio 2022 on Angular projects, which rely on a Node.j

Freezing and BSOD Clock_Watchdog_Timeout

Hello,

I just built a new PC and am having difficulties with Freezing and BSOD Clock_Watchdog_Timeout error. This seems to happen regardless of what I am doing (Playing video games to surfing the web to streaming music via Spotify). I have followed the steps of
a previous recommended Microsoft wiki and collected the following data. I collected the Minidump files and the system specs via MSInfo. Below is the link to that.

CPU: Ryzen 3 1200

Graphics Card: Gforce 770

RAM: 16GB installed PNY DDR4 Anarchy 2400MHz

BSOD Clock_WatchDog_Timeout

Hi

I have been receiving the CLOCK_WATCHDOG_TIMEOUT BSOD even after I installed a fresh Windows 10 Pro. I usually get this error when I do nothing and it just freezes by itself which seems peculiar. I even followed these steps as described in this link (Redirecting) and it didn't work out.

I have uploaded the MiniDump file (find out the below link).

And here is the analysis of the memory dump file using WinDebug:

Any suggestions?
