DPC Watchdog Violation BSOD While Watching Youtube

I have been experiencing many BSODs while browsing Youtube videos. They are all of the DPC Watchdog Violation variety. I have searched through this site previously as I know there are many people experiencing the same problem but I felt it would be easier if I provided with my own personal minidump files and computer specs. I have tried some solutions already found on the site with varying success. My most helpful fix only lasted about 4 hours before I saw another BSOD. This should highlight the severity of my problem. I would really appreciate if someone could help me as I have been experiencing this problem for over a month now.

ASUS X555LAB
Intel i5 5200U

If other info is required I can find it if someone directs me to it.

Thanks in advance:)

There are no crash dumps in the zip you attached. Please check if there are crash dumps in C:\Windows\Mindump\ or if C:\Windows\memory.dmp exists.

Upload minidumps as an attachment here; if memory.dmp exists, and it was created recently, compress it and upload it to google drive/one drive/<your favorite file host>.

Open administrative command prompt and type or copy and paste: slmgr /dlv

Please post an image of the results into the thread or post a share link using one drive or drop box

Hi Spectrum I have looked in both the locations you listed but could not find any traces of anything. I know of what you speak of and have used BlueScreenView before to find such files. Recently however, I have not been getting any minidumps on that program either.

Hi zbook I have done what you asked but since I am not a computer expert, I would appreciate it if you told me what you were trying to attempt.:)

Theres a tool which is used to bypass the activation of microsoft products. If you are sure you did not use a tool like this, maybe a friend or store tech did it without your knowledge.


Rule 4
No piracy or discussion of piracy allowed at all. Such as software, music, videos and other intellectual property violations (e.g. downloading youtube videos locally etc) - it is forum policy that no help shall be given to people who knowingly steal software or services.


One of the main reasons for this is that the act of pirating the software will inevitably change the working of the software and make investigation and repair impossible. Please install a legitimate copy of the software and if you are still experiencing the issue we will be pleased to assist - No further assistance will be provided until we are satisfied that the software is genuine.



Open administrative command prompt and type or copy and paste:

Hi I am unsure of any illegally obtained software on this computer so I am quite worried as to what is happening at this point. I have provided the link to the file produced by the command below.

Genuine.txt - Google Drive
