I think the issue can be counted as solved now. No more BSODs after installing NVIDIA driver from laptop vendor ASUS.
Thank you all for help.
I hope this thread will help to other people too.
I can't mark my Answer - as the Answer for the Question. So i only renamed the 1st post.
Hi,
What I might suggest is to start a new topic on the issue to get the best help.
In that topic it would help to provide the minidump file(s) in the C:\Windows\Minidump folder.
Copy the minidump files to another folder such as a folder on the Desktop and then upload them to a public folder on OneDrive or similar site and provide a link.

Its all well and good that you guys seem to be computer geniuses and understand the what you are talking about. BUT, I just had this problem for the first time and am not well versed with the computer language you guys use so easily. I got the DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION problem on my computer whilst working on excel and listening to music on windows media.
What are the chances that this will happen again, what do I do it it happens? I use windows 8.1. on a Proline laptop.

I too had the same problem. To rule out software or hardware issue I tried running a bootable USB Linux. When I tried to run it without affecting Windows, in Linux it hanged. I concluded it is due to hardware issue. I removed the RAM strips from the Slot and re-fixed it. Thereafter no BSOD.
