Few days ago (16days ) while i was gaming (specifically opened Destiny 2 game) the Pc freezes and i get BSOD showing watchdog Violation! after that i ran Scandisk got no error and since then it never happened again, until today, i was again structed with the same error massage and BSOD, not once but 3 times! all while gaming! i had installed sonar and that was causing stuttering and giving me BSOD for the watchdog violation, even after uninstallation it happed but after the 3rd time it ran smooth! why is it happing ?
i did every troubleshoot found on the INTERNET! from scan disk to chkdsk! the driver seems updated and so is windows! i use Hard disk Sentinel and it shows nothing wrong!
does fresh windows reinstallation resolves the problem ?

Specs:
Ryzen 5 2600
Rx570 4gb
8gb ram
mobo gigabyte B450M
450watt psu
2tb hdd
250gb SATA ssd (91% health)
 
If you are using your SSD as your boot disk, then Disable 'Fast Startup' .
Go to "Control panel click "Power options'.
On the left pane Click 'Choose what the power buttons do'.
Click the 'Change settings that are currently unavailable' link
Under 'Shutdown settings' uncheck 'Turn on fast startup'.

That could cause errors, including the Watchdog BSOD.
