PC keeps BSOD'ing. Halp

CCap · October 13, 2014

The error message that I'm receiving is DPC_Watchdog_Violation. This message has occurred once before, around April of this year when I was trying to setup a VM in Hyper-V.

The only way that I was able to fix my PC last time was to completely wipe my ssd. Nothing else worked, and I couldn't even log into my computer.

This time, I really don't want to have to wipe my C:/ again. This error was caused literally the second I hit "apply" to creating a new Virtual Link connection or whatever in Hyper-V (don't remember the exact name, can't double check either). I was creating a VM and remembered that I had to give it an internet connection, and after configuring it with my ethernet line, my PC immediately BSOD'd and I haven't been able to use it since.

A few moments ago it did let me log into my pc, but everything was drastically slower, to the point where it took about five minutes for chrome to load my old tabs back. The ethernet connection no longer works on my PC, and I don't have a wireless card so I can't see if it will connect to the Wi-Fi. I do know however that the router is working in general as to I am posting this on my mother's laptop, and the wifi is working fine.

If you have any ideas as to what might be causing this, feel free to let me know.

Thanks
