Windows 10: BSOD while playing Just Cause 3

I was just playing the game as per normal. All settings maxed out except for AA which is on FXAA. One thing I recently changed was forcing Anisotropic Filtering in the NVCP.

My hardware is as follows:

EVGA GTX 980 TI 6GB
i7 6700K (No overclock)
16GB DDR4
I have multiple HDD's but not in raid. Just general storage. Dual monitors with Windows 10 x64Bit. I haven't had a BSOD in a very long time so this was a surprise to me.

Code was: CLOCK_WATCHDOG_TIMEOUT

I have attached the Zip File
Attachment 146414

My apologies. I forgot it doesn't zip the files on its own. I re-uploaded it and it's proper now.

Hi RECONBunny ,

In the zip there were no bsod mini dump files.
In case you use Ccleaner please modify the settings: windows tab > system > memory dumps > make sure that it is unchecked
xbox and utorrent were noted as problem signatures and faulting applications.

1) open administrative command prompt and type or copy and paste:
2) sfc /scannow
3) dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth
4) chkdsk /scan
5) When these have completed > right click on the top bar or title bar of the administrative command prompt box > left click on edit then select all > right click on the top bar again > left click on edit then copy > paste into the thread6) download and install whocrashed: http://www.resplendence.com/whocrashed
7) click on analyze and post the results into the thread

9) Make sure that there is no over clocking while troubleshooting.

Sometimes there are problems in the bios that produce bsod.

The bios in your computer: BIOS Version/Date American Megatrends Inc. P1.70, 8/28/2015

10) Please check to see if this is the most up to date version.

11) To ensure that there are no improper bios settings please reset the bios.

Sometimes there can be failure to boot after resetting the bios.

12) So please make sure your files are backed up.

13) Please make a backup image with Macrium:

14) And please create a restore point.
