Hello!
I am writing today to discuss an issue I am having with my PC related to the error code: DPC Watchdog Violation.
The context is this:
I made the mistake of having a game running in the background when GeForce Experience asked me if I wanted to update some drivers for my graphics card. Once I clicked download/update, the computer crashed and gave me the BSOD error code: DPC_Watchdog_Violation.
Now every time I try to start my PC back up it crashes 10 seconds into loading into my desktop with the same error.
I tried researching solutions to this problem and most of the videos online said I should update my drivers related to the processor in device manager. The problem is I can not start my pc long enough to do this.
I tried starting my PC in safe mode and updating the drivers there, but this did not work once I restarted the PC. I even tried removing all drivers related to my GeForce GTX graphics card, which allowed me like 1 extra minute in my desktop before I got the error again. I have tried doing almost everything I could find on Youtube, but to no avail. I am close to giving up and taking it in to a PC repair shop but I would rather see what folks on Tom’s thought. If you reply with a potential solution I appreciate your time and effort.
My specs:
Intel Core i7 (6600k or something)
GTX 1030 3 GB
ASUS STRIX B250 gaming motherboard
16gb ram
2 250g SSD’s
