How Do I Stop DPC Watchdog Violation Blue Screen?

I have been receiving pop up messages for the last month of so saying I should download Windows 8.1. Today, I went on my computer to check a couple things and it popped up again so I just decided to finally get it since I could let it download while I slept for a few hours. Now, ever since I got that, I keep on getting the DPC Watchdog Violation Blue Screen every time I get into a game of League of Legends. I haven't had this update long enough to see what else will cause it. This is getting extremely frustrating and I would like to know how to stop this. I have never been a huge fan of Windows 8, unfortunately, and this update so far isn't helping much. =/ 

P.S. I don't know if this makes a difference, but my computer is the HP Envy M6.

    Keep me updated on the BSOD's, and then we'll appropriately tackle that popup, perhaps with a new thread.

    OK, so far I have played two games of league of Legends and my computer hasn't crashed yet. However, I am getting this popup saying "Your computer is low on memory, save your files and close these programs: League of Legends Client" (this started popping right after I downloaded windows 8.1, during the crashes). I will give you another update tomorrow when I've been on my computer  longer

    Yes, this appears to be your problem based on what the crash dumps are saying. Follow my recommendations and keep me updated (leave Norton uninstalled).

    So removing these programs and replacing them should solve the problem? Also, do I have to re-install Norton, or can I just leave it off of my computer.
