Windows 10: watchdog violation after windows update

So I have an Old pc upgraded to Win 10, worked ok at the weekend. But after a windows Auto update I get a Watchdog violation every 10 mins or so. I guess some driver has been 'updated' by windows and is causing a crash ? Heres the log. Hope someone can help or at least tell me which driver I need to downgrade. I hate windows update it just breaks things.*Mad

:)

 

Microsoft wants to know - Anyone seeing issues with the April updates KB3147461 and KB3147458?

I updated to the newest Windows 10 on my new laptop but after restart and a few minutes the computer restarts and says there is a dpc watchdog violation then repeats the cycle of restart and watchdog violation how do i fix this I have already tried multiple
fixes like disabling fast start up and updating the drivers this didn't happen until I update to the new Windows 10 update

 

DPC Watchdog Violation

I got "DPC Watchdog Violation" in Windows 10 Pro after update to 1607.

How can I uplode minidump

Hi happyhiker,

I would suggest you to check Dell for driver updates.
The Nvidia storage driver has caused the crashes.
Code: *** WARNING: Unable to verify timestamp for nvstor.sys *** ERROR: Module load completed but symbols could not be loaded for nvstor.sys 0: kd> lmvm nvstor start end module name 829c0000 829e5000 nvstor T (no symbols) Loaded symbol image file: nvstor.sys Image path: \SystemRoot\System32\drivers\nvstor.sys Image name: nvstor.sys Timestamp: Mon Apr 21 20:33:58 2014 (53556496) CheckSum: 0002E0B1 ImageSize: 00025000 Translations: 0000.04b0 0000.04e4 0409.04b0 0409.04e4[/quote]

 

ok thanks, that makes sense as that caused BSOD on initial install. Windows Update must have backed out the driver.

 

You can check it by looking at the Windows Update history *Smile
