Playing CS:GO for around 10 mins on Windows 10 (upgraded from Windows 8... or 8.1, not sure) gave me this error.

It does not happen when I'm not playing the game, but does always happen when I'm playing CS:GO.

Here's what WhoCrashed told me:


On Sat 2020/06/06 2:50:04 your computer crashed or a problem was reported

crash dump file: C:\WINDOWS\Minidump\060620-5515-01.dmp

This was probably caused by the following module: ntoskrnl.exe (nt+0x3DDA20)

Bugcheck code: 0x133 (0x1, 0x1E00, 0xFFFFF8070B8FA318, 0x0)

Error: DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION

file path: C:\WINDOWS\system32\ntoskrnl.exe

product: MicrosoftR WindowsR Operating System

company: Microsoft Corporation

description: NT Kernel & System

Bug check description: The DPC watchdog detected a prolonged run time at an IRQL of DISPATCH_LEVEL or above. This could be caused by either a non-responding driver or non-responding hardware. This bug check can also occur because of overheated CPUs (thermal issue).

The crash took place in the Windows kernel. Possibly this problem is caused by another driver that cannot be identified at this time.



On Sat 2020/06/06 2:50:04 your computer crashed or a problem was reported

crash dump file: C:\WINDOWS\MEMORY.DMP

This was probably caused by the following module: intelppm.sys (intelppm+0x138f)

Bugcheck code: 0x133 (0x1, 0x1E00, 0xFFFFF8070B8FA318, 0x0)

description: Processor Device Driver

Bug check description: The DPC watchdog detected a prolonged run time at an IRQL of DISPATCH_LEVEL or above. This could be caused by either a non-responding driver or non-responding hardware. This bug check can also occur because of overheated CPUs (thermal issue).

The crash took place in a Microsoft module. The description of the module may give a hint about a non responding device in the system.



The CPU temperature was not that high, fan was working normally too. So I thought it was a driver issue.

And I found this thread, Bluescreen Error: DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION.

However, my Device Manager does not show "IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers" category. Therefore, I cannot update the driver.

Is there anything that I can do?
(And if you know, is this problem unique to CS:GO? Are there anything else, especially games, that trigger this crash? )



Thanks! (and sorry for my poor English.)
