Hello,


I have a Lenovo ideapad 510 running Windows 10 64bit. Every time I try one of the following it blue screens with a "DPC Watchdog Violation Message"

WiFi, plugging/unplugging ethernet, or modifying driver settings in device manager.


I opened the dump file and saw something about the WLAN driver? It has a Realtek 8821AE driver. I tried uninstall the newest driver, and installing an old driver, but it will not work. It continues to update to the newest driver. I rant the Windows Troubleshooter to prevent it from installing the newest driver and that did not work either. I am not sure if it is the Realtek WLAN driver, the Realtek ethernet controller, motherboard, or something else. I have reinstalled Windows 10, ran a memory test, updated all of the drivers to the newest, removed the SSD and installed on a regular HDD. None of these things have solved the issue. Also, I am running Windows version 2004. Any help with troubleshooting would be great.
