  1. Need help with frequent crashing in TF2 due to DPC Watchdog Violations


    Hi all,I've had long running issues with DPC watchdog violations on my MSI Katana 15 B12VGK. Updating certain drivers has helped the issue somewhat in the past but I've never been able to fully solve it. I'm posting five of my most recent minidumps here to see if I can get some resolution on this, or if I should look elsewhere. Thank you.https://www.mediafire.com/file/q7y18un1mlg25l2/Minidump%25284%2529.zip/file

  2. DPC WATCHDOG VIOLATION HELP??

    I've been experiencing a DPC Watchdog Violation error and have tried various solutions suggested in online tutorials and videos, but the issue persists. I'm not sure what's causing the problem. Can someone help me troubleshoot? I've included a crash log report and I can provide more information if needed.

    This is the crash report down here

    Frequent BSOD crashes - DPC Watchdog Violation

    Hey all, I'm getting frequent DPC Watchdog_Violation BSOD crashes and I just cannot figure out why.

    A bit of background: I bought an ACER Aspirer TC-280 Desktop in March. It ran okay for about a month then it started acting up. I had a ticking hard drive, multiple crashes etc. In Late June/early July, I had the HDD replaced by ACER. It continued to act up so the following week in July I had the entire tower replaced, with an indentical model.

    This second TC-280 is the one currently experiencing frequent crashes. It will often go days without issue, and then have a crash with another one shortly after. The most recent crash was around 3:45 am on the morning of August 25, and one about 1:40 am on the morning of August 23. It almost crashed around 2:30 pm, today August 26 (frozen picture, buzzing sound) but it resolved itself.

    It usually happens when watching videos on the computer. Youtube, from the HDD, doesn't matter. The screen will freeze and the audio will buzz until the blue screen pops up saying the system experienced an issue, and the code is DPC Watchdog Violation. However, it can also happen when doing something benign, for example, I had it freeze when simply scrolling through a text webpage.

    I have done multiple Google searches and checked numerous forums and to try and fix this issue I have tried:

    • Updating display/audio/chipset/etc drivers
    • Changing from HDMI-DVI to DVI-DVI to connect my monitor to the tower because I read that HDMI can cause issues
    • Turning of Fast-start up (I have since turned it back on because it made no difference)
    • Uninstalling Kaspersky (anti-virus) because I read that 3rd party antivirus can cause issues

    The only thing that is constant between this computer and the last that also experienced BSOD crashes is my software (most of which I have used for years on multiple systems without issue) and monitor (again, also been using for years on multiple systems without issue) and I've searched multiple times to see if a monitor can cause this issue and have come up with nothing.

    I followed the steps in the posting instructions and will attach the created zip file. Any help is greatly appreciated with this issue. It is driving me insane and I know I'm going to end up with a corrupted system/HDD if these crashes continue.
