I Upgraded from vista after trying the comusmer preview a few moths back(which worked flawlessly btw) and now after installed windows 8 I've come across this watchdog violation. I'm assuming its a driver error. I have an ati HD4870 and I know AMD will stop supporting these older graphics cards and that they released a legacy driver for windows 8. I installed it and it seemed to be running fine however the crashes started happening again so I don't know if it is the video card or something else.
I also have two ahrd drives, 1 320gb hitachi deskstar(windows installed) and a western digital blue 500gb(storage)
I tried running windows in safe mode and it still crashed, also when I tried the comusmer preview I installed it on a 20gb partition on the 500gb to try it and it worked fine without installing the legacy drivers, maybe it has something to do with the 320gb hard drive?
thanks for any information in advance.
