Hello, I've been getting random watchdog violation BSODs for the past couple of months or more. Its become a source of much irritation and lost time. Any help would be appreciated! :)

Edit: It might also be worth noting that windows explorer freezes quite often.

After reading several more threads across the internet, I discovered that the remote NDIS based usb adapter driver I installed for my phone was causing the issue.
