DPC_Watchdog_violation

[diligentworst]

Hello,
I am currently experiencing issues with the DPC_Watchdog_Violation error. I have performed a factory reset and stress-tested both the GPU and CPU. Although I am in the process of sending my RAM for replacement, I am not entirely certain that it is the root cause of the problem.
Could anyone provide additional advice or insights on this issue?

Thank you.

Hi diligentworst, the DPC_Watchdog_Violation error can sometimes be caused by outdated drivers or incompatible hardware. Make sure all your drivers are up to date, especially for your storage and graphics devices. If your RAM replacement doesn’t fix it, consider checking for firmware updates for your motherboard as well.

Since you’ve done a factory reset and tested the GPU and CPU, it might be worth checking your SSD or HDD. Sometimes, issues with storage devices can cause this error. Run a diagnostic tool to check for any errors on your drives.

Hi there, if the RAM replacement doesn’t resolve the issue, try disabling any recently added hardware or peripherals to see if that helps. Also, ensure your system's power settings are configured properly, as incorrect power management settings often triggers this error.
