DPC WATCHDOG VIOLATION cannot find the reason for it

[Utjn]

I cannot find the reason that I am getting a dpc watchdog violation. I am able to boot up and log in but once I start playing a game or rarely if i am doing something on discord I receive the error. This error also happened very suddenly on 11-10-19.

This usually indicates an unstable OC.

 

Did you OC anything in your system, CPU,  GPU, RAM?

I have not touched any OC because i would just use what it gave me, I have the R7 3700x which i have seen auto overclocking but i didn't touch it.

Ok so you're not getting a BSOD immediately - that's good. 

 

I found this,  I hope it helps you to fix it

Otherwise you could also check if your sata mode is set to AHCI in BIOS, but that's just a hunch,  try the fix described in the link first.

You have 3 SATA AHCI controllers in task manager? 

 

If so I would take the first one but I'm not sure about that either.

would it be bad to update all of them.

I don't think it would be bad. 

Just update the first one, if it's still not fixed update the others too.

i have done that but i am looking at bluescreen view which is saying i have had 3 different types of blue screens being  0x00000133 which i am pretty sure is the watchdog, ATTEMPTED_WRITE_TO_READONLY_MEMORY and KMODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED

does this help

 

[Utjn]

0x00000133 being caused by driver - ntoskrnl.exe

ATTEMPTED_WRITE_TO_READONLY_MEMORY being caused by - hidusb.sys

 and KMODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED also being caused by driver - ntoskrnl.exe

Well if that fix from the link didn't work then I'm out of ideas also,  sorry. 

 

Edit: actually this all looks like driver issues after some quick google fu, did you recently update or install Windows?
