DPC Watchdog Violation

Question

Hi,

After a new install of windows I am intermittently getting errors for DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION.
I have since installed an nvidia graphics driver and other things and haven't been getting it as much, but every now and then I am still getting the error.

I have included my minidump files here:
