Windows 10: PC crashes on startup or on desktop. Stop code: DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION

Hi.My PC crashes with a blue screen, during startup or on the desktop after a little. Everything was fine yesterday, computer ran with no problems, but in the morning my pc started crashing. It first freezes everything, makes everything unresponsive and after a few seconds it blue screens and restarts the computer. The throbber on the cursor when the screen freezes seem to still have it's animation. When it reboots 3 times it gets to a recovery screen where it also says "It looks like Windows didn't load correctly".Stop code: DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATIONAttempted troubleshooting: factory reset with

Multiple Stop Codes: Windows 10 crash

Hey Guys,

Recently, my main desktop Windows 10 machine has started to crash. I think it could be due to the latest 'massive' windows update. But before rolling back to a previous build (I'd prefer to keep the security updates), it'd be good to get some expert help
on what the multiple stop codes I'm getting actually mean and what they may point to.

Initially, I thought it may have been because my system was getting junked up, so I did a clean install of Windows 10 and updated like normal. This did not fix the problem.

Here are the stop codes I've been getting since the clean install and the number of times its occurred:

• BAD_POOL_HEADER (4)
  • Can happen on startup when reaching the desktop.
  • While watching YouTube.
  • While computer was idle on the desktop.
• MEMORY_MANAGEMENT (3)
  • Happens on startup after reaching desktop.
  • Crashed with this stop code when opening chrome.
• KERNEL_SECURITY_CHECK_FAILURE (1)
  • Happen after some time with low system load.
• KMODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED (1)
  • On start up.
• IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL (1)
  • Chrome tabs kept crashing immediately before system crash.

Some the processes I've tried to fix or diagnose:

• Ran the windows memory check. Came back all good.
• Ran the driver verifier. This caused drivers to crash when trying log into the desktop. Cause was: USB_Ethernet_Adaptor.sys. The device I use for internet is the TP-Link TL-WN822N Wireless USB adapter. In case that information could help diagnose the problem.

I've included the minidump files from the last few days when the crashes occured, and my system info here: Dropbox

I'd greatly appreciate any tips on how to fix this issue.

Thanks!

Sam.
