Lately I have been experiencing up multiple BSODs a day, all relating to DPC Watchdog Violation. This only happens when playing games and occurs usually during an initial loading screen. After about three restarts due to a BSOD I can finally load up the game and play. It is not confined to a single game. I'll try to provide as much information as I can now to speed up the troubleshooting process.
Lenovo Y580 Laptop
Windows 8.1 x64
Intel Graphics 4000
Nvidia GTX 660m (latest drivers)
Intel i7-3630QM @ 2.40 GHz
8 gigs RAM
I've tried various things to solve the problem, mainly reinstalling drivers. None of it seemed to work and I'm not sure what else to do.
