Someone posted an alternative, I haven't tried it, however.... It is as follows: http://www.eightforums.com/crashes-debugging/6944-how-i-worked-around-my-freezing-problem-windows-8-a.html

I believe it stays (in my BIOS) under Performance or Power Options... It's a check-box for Enable/Disable

Try going to the BIOS and disabling C-States,a few people have been having issues like these(like myself) and that has solved it... If that doesn't work... check your drivers...

Yeah, other posts led me to the solution... 6 hours, no crash (I got a crash earlier, but I had forgotten to plug in the notebook, and ACPI was disabled :p)

Solved my problem... Many thanks =] (Disabled C-States)

Disabling C-States seems to have solved my problem Already started re-enabling the drivers... no crash for a good while.... Thanks for the patience and ideas, learned a lot =]

I had it configured properly... could be the high IRQL stopping the crash from happening... Gonna try the disable C-States approach mentioned in another post... Though, I had already tried disabling SpeedStep and that didn't work =\

I made the change, but it didn't crash when I pressed on my wireless keyboard... On the notebook's keyboard, there's no scroll lock starting to get hd errors, after all the crashes... so I think I'm going to stop playing around a bit =\ (Partition errors and the like)

Ok... Hi latency and sound jittering turned out to be Driver Verifier's fault... seeing as it had been quite a while since a bsod, turned it off and now sound's good No freezes for a while, and I put the notebook to sleep twice! (before it would crash) So things are looking good... the computer...

Well, I figure it started happening because you were actually putting the computer to use, and not just leaving it barebone without doing nothing. I have formatted and reinstalled and the issue persisted. However, I've read people saying it happens more often with Chrome, if you want to try...

Didn't try refreshing, and since it seems to be a driver issue, I don't think it'll solve it either....

Your describing the same thing I have.... http://www.eightforums.com/crashes-debugging/6651-yet-another-annoying-freeze-post.html See if anything from there helps you... We haven't been able to solve anything yet though =\

No problem! My Bios is kinda restrictive, only lets me disable a few things, didn't see audio on it I ran into another forum saying it's an issue from Win7, that wasn't quite as bad as it is on win8 High DPC Latency, Dell XPS M1530, Windows 8 Consumer Preview ndis.sys- High DPC latenecy / High...

looking into the flooded system interrupts, I ran into this post:How to get the cause of high CPU usage by DPC / Interrupt - MSFN Forum Taking the easy way out, I installed LatencyMon (bottom of the post) that gave me the following message: Your system appears to be having trouble handling...

Looked into the Stapo64.dll, it seems to be an audio driver from SigmaTel/IDT stapo64.dll - What is the stapo64.dll ? stapo64.dll by SigmaTel, Inc. (C-Major Audio) The audio drivers I installed are from IDT so I guess that's where it comes from I can complain that the audio seems to glitch on...
