Recently I have built a 3D rendering station for a client of mine. The machine runs, but crashes about once or twice a day with a BSOD (watchdog violation 1x133. Blue Screen View mentions either nvlddmkm.sys or ntoskrnl.exe as culprit.

Things I have tried so far:

  • Clean install Windows 10
  • Clean install Windows 7
  • DDU removal of graphics drivers
  • latest nVidia drivers
  • older nVidia drivers
  • extensive RAM testing

Specs:

  • Asus X99-WS 10G E
  • Intel 6850K
  • 7x Zotac 1080ti Blower Edition (transformed to water cooling)
  • 64GB RAM
  • Samsung 960 Pro 512GB (system drive)
  • 3x WD Red in RAID 0 (data drive)
  • 2x Cooler Master V1200 PSU
  • Custom EK watercooling loop
  • Obsidian 900D

Any help or insight on this issue would be greatly appreciated, as this issue now causes great delays in my client's workflow.

    Nice guys! Thanks for letting us know :)

    I got BSOD twice, today, with same error: DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION. It looks like I judged too early I suppose...

    UPDATE (29/09/2018): I confirmed with NVIDIA Support that the issue has not been resolved. The Release Notes in the latest driver update (27/09/2018) have been updated accordingly.

    I confirm the system is stable with the new drivers (411.63), using ASUS X299 Sage WS motherboard and 4x GTX 1080 Ti GPUs.

    UPDATE (24/09/2018): I got a DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION error (BSOD) twice today. Looks like the bug is still present :-(
