Hi everyone, could you help me interpret a mini dump file in Windbg? My computer keeps restarting unexpectedly, and I’m trying to figure out why. I just did a clean install of Windows, but the problem still exists. Microsoft suggested a full reinstall or sending it to a technician, but I’m stuck reading these logs. The summary says: DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION (133). Here’s what they noted: the watchdog saw a long time at an IRQL of DISPATCH_LEVEL or higher. Details include arguments and timestamps, but it’s hard to parse without more context. Could someone assist? Also, I’m curious about my system—what OS version is it? Is it Windows 8, 7, Vista, or something newer like Windows 11?
