so past week or two my windows task bar would randomly freeze up and i would have to do a hard reset (if i tried closing via windows it would take hours before it closed) but today for the first time in nearly two years i got a bsod.
specs:
i7 4790k
gtx 970
8gb 1600mhz ram
660w psu gold
msi z97m gaming motherboard
here is a copy of the minidump if anyone wants to help me out

Hi there kanki and welcome to PCHF

I’ve moved your thread over to the Windows 10 BSOD section. I’ll analyze your dump files shortly and let you know

[jmarket]

Hi again,

I’ve analyzed your dump file, and nothing out of the ordinary pops out. Sometimes a BSOD will occur once and then never again. I see that this BSOD occured 2 weeks ago. Have you had any other BSODs?

erh no this bsod happend like 8 hours ago?, and i havent had a bsod since i reinstalled windows back in april 2015

[jmarket]

Oops my bad. I misread your header lol.

Did you run through the BSOD prework? If not, please do so

There’s no underlying cause or STOP code embedded in the file, so it’s unknown what caused the crash. Couple questions for you:

1.) Did you add any new hardware recently?
2.) Did you install any new software just before it crashed?

changed from my 680 to a 970
no new software though
and here is the file doing what the thread youve made said.

[kanki]

does the new one help?

Sorry about the delay. Had a busy day today.

Further analysis reveals you received a DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION BSOD. This occurs when the DPC period is exhausted, usually when a hardware Interrupt Request takes too long. Fortunately it doesn’t indicate a problem with hardware or software as a stack trace didn’t produce any outbound or inbound calls to the EBX register, which will push the offending driver to the top of the stack

You should be safe from further BSODs, as a DPC BSOD will usually occur only once and a reboot will fix it. If you experience further BSODs, please let us know

ah! ok glad to hear its nothing major, did reinstall windows tho as it hasnt been cleaned since 10 came out, only issue i occured with the clean windows is in chrome that gifs/videos are misscolored in the first few seconds and that typing in chrome is laggish

[jmarket]

Are your graphics drivers up to date? Usually miscoloration indicates an out-of-date video driver.

hmm windows 10 installed the nvidia driver before i had the chance to but i did update it.should i download ddu and remove it? and reinstall?

[jmarket]

Yes. Give it a whirl and reboot after doing so. Download a fresh driver from nvidia, run ddu, reboot, install the fresh driver, and reboot once more That should hopefully fix it
