Windows 10: PC Watchdog Violations. etc...

I've been having a lot of trouble lately with my windows 10 installation.

Ok, here's my zip file. I've attached a text file from cpu-z too.

Here's what's been happening. Every cold boot my keyboard / mouse lock up and I can't do anything with them.
I hit the reset button (warm boot) and it takes me over 1+ plus to get to my desktop (actually I installed syskey for some stupid reason) and that pops up before I get to my login prompt. (normally I boot within 30 seconds).


I randomly get pc watchdog violations. I've been to the asrock site and downloaded and upgraded all my chipset drivers, etc... I've got kaspersky AV, not sure if this is any good? and am using Malwarebytes too.

My amd radeon card has been updated to the latest drivers as well.

I'm at the point of wanting to reformat the drive and start over, but I'm not sure what disc I should use? Should I use my 8.1 licensed version, or can I use a windows 10 disc and put my 8.1 license in there?

Anyways, thanks in advance.

Why would you make a thread without the files... Please reply back once files have been uploaded.

 

As long as nobody replies and the files are uploaded eventually, I don't see why someone shouldn't create a thread.

 

I just noticed thru the reliability monitor that my IAStorDataMgrSvc stopped working.

The intel RST is not running either (in my task area), and when I open it, it says an unknown error (lol). Try reinstalling the application? Where is Intel RST?

 

Please remove / disable items from the startup in taskmanager
These programs could interfere with the boot process giving you trouble and increase the boot time.

Update/reinstall VMware

Thanks, I just installed xfast lan on my asrock. I'll remove that first.

Is it ok to just disable my vmware vmnet adapters?

 

Looking at the date of the driver, it is better to update/reinstall.
Btw, it is not a network driver.

I found and installed Intel RST, seems to be working correctly now.

 

My PC is finally acting normally. Thanks 4 your help!

 

Glad to hear that *Smile
