Windows 10: Windows 11 Update "DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION"

I keep running into an issue when updating Windows 11. After rebooting to finish installing the update, the little circle thing will stop spinning after a while typically around 48%, though once it got to 65% complete, then I get a green screen showing a "DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION" error. After eventually getting back to Windows which can sometimes take a while as the process to undo the upgrade can also freeze and cause the same error screen, but I eventually get back in, usually downloading the update again and trying again will result in it installing successfully.I have an HP Pavilion 15-

DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION

Hi,

It is possible that the error DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION may occur if the iastor.sys driver is incompatible with Windows 10. To isolate your issue, we'd like to gather more information:

• Have you made any recent changes before this issue occurred?
• What troubleshooting steps have you done so far?

Any response will be highly appreciated.

 

Blue screen: DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION

After a recent updating, my machine has blue screen every 5 - 10 minutes.

The error code is DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION

I saw another post here which suggest to use "iastor.sys". But I don't have that in the driver list. Mine is storahci.sys.

Please advise! Thanks,
