Confirmed by Microsoft:

Solution Task || v-2sack || 08-Dec-2014 12/08/2014 11:12

Symptom:

Machine  (Surface Pro 3) running with "Windows 8.1 Pro" crashes with the bugcheck "0x0000000a (0xfffff6f000cf5000, 0x0000000000000002, 0x0000000000000000, 0xfffff800bc365f66)" after you connected it to the employee network called "XXX"  using CISCO wireless network and it crashed only if the feature Flexconnect (CISCO WIRELESS) was enabled.

Cause:

Cisco wireless Access Points was outdated.

Resolution:

Cisco updated the wireless Access Points to a new version of code which resolved the issue completely.

Well after a couple weeks working with Microsoft Commercial Technical Support a situation arose that resolved this issue. Apparently our Cisco support vendor was having the same complaint at another of their customer's site. There was a firmware update for the Cisco 1142 access points. To be specific the version is 7.6.130.0. We applied this update to all of our APs and this fixed the BSOD on all of the Surface Pro 3 devices.

    do you also have the  Cisco 1142 wireless AP? if not, what are you using?

    I have a surface pro 3 and getting constant BSOD with DPC_Watchdog_Violation msg when in office.

    it occurs in the office when have a wired connection or when using our wireless which is Cisco of some variety. BSOD also when have wireless specifically turned OFF while on a wired connectio as well.

    After 3 BSOD in rapid succession at the office, i tried something different...ti did not seem to occur when I used wireless and was connected to my cell phone's Personal Hotspot as the internet connection.  Will test that some more, but it is not a viable "solution"

    Would this be a  wifi issue or other? Suggestion on what and how to look for in a dmp file or other diagnosis process?

    Have loaded the latest updates already.

    thanks in advance for insights. And triple thanks for an outright solution :-)
