    What is causing my BSOD DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION?


    So I have been using my pc for about a year now and no problems and then the computer started to freeze about a month ago. It would crash whenever I would play games. It would crash about an hour into playing a game but now its almost a few minutes into playing a game. The whole computer freezes and then I get a BSOD. If anyone can help me I would greatly appreciate it, I start class on the 26th of Aug and I would like to have a computer to do my classwork on.DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION 133The DPC watchdog detected a prolonged run time at an IRQL of DISPATCH_LEVELor above.Arguments:Arg1:

    Those steps are not relevant to me. In those steps it asks to check the IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers for iastore.sys in the listed drivers.

    I do not have iastore as a driver nor is that the files causing the BSOD.

    The driver that is causing it (I got this from BlueScreenView) is nvstore.sys which is listed as the driver for three identical items in 'storage controllers' There are 4 items there. 3 of them are called NVIDIA nForce Serial ATA Controller. Those three
    all list this nvstore.sys as their driver.

    I suspect that if I could replace or fix that driver it would solve the issue based on the advice given by Annanya. Does that sound right? If so, how would I go about it?
