    Windows 11 DAM_WATCHDOG_TIMEOUT blue screen when waking the device


    My new Alienware computer has been getting a blue screen when it wakes from sleep. The error is DAM_WATCHDOG_TIMEOUT and it says that dam.sys failed. I’ve already checked drivers and installed any updates, run memory diagnostics, sfc, run all of the Dell support scans, ePSA tests, etc. I did notice that in the Alienware Command Center, my RAM occasionally dips to 4400 Mhz even though it is 4800. Dell support wants to just do a system restore, but I don't think that is going to fix it. Any ideas? I have a complete memory dump file, but it's about 33 GB.

    :)

    Windows 10 blue screens after waking from sleep.

    Steps to that cause this problem:

    • Allowing windows to sleep.
    • Waking once, logging in.
    • Allowing it to sleep once more.
    • Wait for some time like 2 hours.
    • Try to login again.
    After all these steps my laptop Dell Vostro 3546, stops responding on the login screen, no inputs will be taken and then Blue screens by saying Critical_Store_Exception. I have collected some crash dumps and posted it here: CrashDumps.

    Blue Screen View says that the BSOD happened because of something went wrong with the ntoskrnl.exe, address ntoskrnl+142760, file version of ntoskrnl.exe is "10.0.10586.306 (th2_release_sec.160422-1850)".

    Startup blue screen error(s) can occur if a problem causes your PC to shut down or restart unexpectedly. It could be due to the following:

    • Outdated device software drivers

    • Did you get any blue screen stop error codes?

    Hello,

    A stop error (also called a "blue screen" error) can occur if a problem causes your PC to shut down or restart unexpectedly. These errors can be caused by both hardware and software issues.

    • Confirm which build is currently installed on your device. To check, follow the steps below:
    • Press Windows key + R, then type in winver.
    • Click OK.
    • Were there any recent changes made prior to this issue?
    • What is the make and model of your device?
