    PC randomly crashes giving DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION error


    I'm using Windows 11 and myy HP laptop randomly freezes and then crashes to give a Blue Screen error with the DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION error code. It then gets stuck at that error screen until I force shutdown my laptop.I've been getting this error for quite a while now. I tried updating drivers, clean installing Windows, and even changed my SSD and still no solution.Any help would be appreciated.

    :)

    10 Crashing Randomly and During Updates and File Downloads

    This is a re-post from here.

    I have a Windows 10 PC that I run 24/7. I have Windows Updates disabled through the Group Policy Editor. I still perform updates manually every few days. Windows Defender updates work fine. Other Windows updates cause the PC to crash, no BSOD or anything, it just turns off. I've looked for 1074, 6006, and 6008 event log files to explain why and I haven't been able to find anything.

    Other times the computer just randomly crashes and also sometimes when downloading files. The symptom is the same, I check on it and find it powered down or it just shuts off while I'm using it. It boots back up fine and I see no cause listed in the event logs.

    I have been through the 3 tests suggested to me on the old thread. SMART looked good, memtest ran for 33 hours for 8 passes with no errors, and prime was run for 3 hours with no errors.

    I think the next step was to run V2 Log collector, that data is attached.

    Any help is appreciated.

    Thanks,
    Chris

    PC randomly crashes giving DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION error

    PC randomly crashes once per day -- DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION (133)

    Hi. I'm using a Lenovo Legion Tower desktop PC running Windows 11. The PC has started crashing at seemingly random times, at least once per session. It's happened when gaming and when browsing Chrome. It can run for hours before crashing. The screen freezes and the sound loops, then the PC reboots.

    I checked a dump file from the latest reboot and it gives me DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION (133). The Reliability Monitor simply gives "Hardware Error" as a reason. I've used Event Viewer to diagnose and fix a couple issues I thought were causing the crashing -- an issue with core isolation and then the wi-fi driver. That hasn't fixed it.

    Could someone with more PC proficiency please have a look at the dump files and give me a more specific cause of the crash? I've included files from two recent crashes:

    022424-11218-01.dmp

    022624-12390-01.dmp
