Hi yall, I have a problem, I’ve been using my PC for 2-3 years now, and over the last few months I’ve been running into the same issue more and more: whenever I do something not intensive such as watching YT/ a show, after a little bit it fully freezes, no ctl alt del no nothing, I have to manually turn the PC off and on again whenever this happens, sometimes the PC just resets and sometimes I get a blue screen with DPC_watchdog_violation. This never happens whenever I’m doing more intense stuff such as gaming. I was wondering if anyone could help. Below are my specs:

motherboard is a ROG STRIX X570-E gaming by republic of games

Video card is a RTX 2060 by Nvidia

CPU: AMD ryzen 7 5000 series processor

    Hello,

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community forum.

    Based on the description, I understand your question is related to BSOD with error code DPC_watchdog_violaton.

    The DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION bug check has a value of 0x00000133. This bug check indicates that the DPC watchdog executed, either because it detected a single long-running deferred procedure call (DPC), or because the system spent a prolonged time at an interrupt request level (IRQL) of DISPATCH_LEVEL or above.

    Here are some troubleshooting methods:

    • If a driver is identified in the bug check message, to isolate the issue, disable the driver. Check with the manufacturer for driver updates.
    • Check the System Log in Event Viewer for additional error messages that might help identify the device or driver that is causing bug check 0x133.
    • Confirm that any new hardware that is installed is compatible with the installed version of Windows. For example for Windows 10, you can get information about required hardware at Windows 10 Specifications.
    • For additional general troubleshooting information, see Blue Screen Data.

    Have a nice day.
