BSOD, Watch Dog Violation 0x133
Since building my new PC around August 2019 I have been getting random reboots and the occasional BSOD, each of these result in my 2nd Samsung 970 Evo Plus (2TB) disappearing from Windows. Originally the PC would instantly restart, more recently I'm getting the BSOD's, so now have MEMORY.dmp files available.
Initially I was getting several lock ups a day, but I later tracked this down to a conflict between Kaspersky and Malwarebytes, originally resolved by removing Malwarebytes and later with a fix issued by Malwarebytes. (I've added this, but it maybe a red herring)
Around the same time I was having the issues with Kaspersky/Malwarebytes I also installed the latest Samsung NVMe drivers (3.2 at the time, now 3.3), with the Samsung drivers installed I'm still getting BSOD's but they seem to be further apart, 1 month to 1.5 months.
Since building my PC I've done several fresh installs of Windows, originally 1909 and now 2004, each installation has been done with the latest drivers for my various devices and I have current firmware's installed for the motherboard and NVMe drives. I've also done several MemTest runs with zero faults.
I've also been in contact with Samsung thinking that maybe the controller is locking and causing the reboot, but after sending them some diagnostic logs and SMART readouts they have said that they don't believe the drive is at fault and it must be down to something else.
I haven't yet contact Asus to see if it's possibly an issue with the X570 chipset. But otherwise I'm at a lose as to what else it could be, I'm hoping someone here who is more knowledgably might be able to clean something from the DMP files?
