Windows 10: random BSOD Kernel-power(41) error after upgrading to Windows 10 Education

I recently had to upgrade to Windows 10 Education from Windows 10 for my study.


After upgrading I've had random BSOD crashes multiple times a day (DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION), it doesn't seem to matter if i'm running programs or if the laptop is running nothing.


In the event log its stated the problem is Kernel Power ID 41 with the following details:

I've tried all solutions I found on the internet, including:

• updated drivers
• Ran windows update
• updated BIOS via Lenovo website
• changed driver controller to standard AHCI ATA-controller
• tried to run driver verifier; it crashed immideately while rebooting so had to do system restore

in the link i provided the minidump and msinfo32 file and a screenshot of my system specs. What other solution can I try?

Kernel Power error 41

Just posted on another thread dealing with kernel power 41 error. I had this issue when I first upgraded from windows 8.1 to windows 10. My system would just restart itself every time after starting up my computer each day after work. For me it would happen roughly 10 mins in from startup.

A little research showed that it was caused by having fast startup enabled under power options. Once I disable this I haven't had this issue popup since.

I'm not saying it can't be hardware related, but under 8.1/10 it's such an easy option to disable and check it's worth the small amount of time it takes to test it.
