    DPC Watchdog Violation


    Periodically getting DPC Watchdog Violation BSODS.
    Machine will run for a couple of hours then freeze and get BSOD, or System process taking large percentage of CPU.....

    Thanks

    PS I hope that I have attached the output file from log collector correctly !!

    It looks like the problem could be associated with a Glasswire Firewall product. Try temporarily removing this and using the built in W10 firewall. See if it makes a difference. If it does you can either continue with the W10 firewall or try to update the Glasswire drivers.

    Code:
    Start memory scan  : 0xffffa80109d78bc8 ($csp)
End memory scan    : 0xffffa80109d79000 (ISR Stack Base)

    1) There are multiple entries in the hosts file > please remove the piracy /crack
    See rule # 4
    Forum Rules - Windows 10 Help Forums

    2) There are logs used for troubleshooting that were empty.

    3) Please use the snipping tool to make images and post share links into the thread using one drive, drop box, or google drive.

    4) Open Ccleaner (do not install the software if it is not already installed) > click windows tab > scroll down to system and advanced > post an image into the thread

    5) Post images of the settings for HD Clean

    6) Uninstall:

    Thanks Zboot for your input.
    Answers as follows:- Hosts file tidied up and guilty entries removed
    When I ran log-collector to show problems, there were errors on the Powershell screen which I could not catch. I have subsequently run DM_Log_Collector and the output is attached. It was interseting when running this that it reported that it could not find the minidump file.
    CCleaner image attached
    I do not have HD Clean but have HD Cleaner, however this will not load.

    Many Thanks

    1) For Ccleaner:
    a) uncheck Memory dumps
    b) uncheck Windows log files

    2) Check other installed software to see what can be done to prevent the cleaning of:
    a) Windows error reporting: WER
    b) Event logs

    3) If there are any BSOD immeidately:
    a) run the BETA log collector and post a new zip into the thread
    b) open file explorer > this PC > C: > in the right upper corner search for: C:\windows\memory.dmp > if the file size is < 1.5 GB then zip > post a share link into the thread using one drive, drop box, or google drive


    4) Please use the information in this link to unintall iobit software:
