Fix 0xc1900101 DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION GSOD
Hello everyone! Recently for the past few release previews, after updating sometimes you might get interrupted by a GSOD. I've got a lot of experience with these... And they're the worst. But this ...
Angelina2552 0xc1900101 error is a generic error, usually driver related. Watchdog bugchecks are usually caused by drivers as well. This could very well be a different issue. Recommend you start by ensuring all your drivers are running the latest from the device manufacturer's website. Do not update using Device Manager or Windows Update. Please manually get the latest ones. Should your problem persist, please log it in Feedback Hub and share the link.

Yes, it can definitely be driver related. I've experienced that in other systems before that aren't running Insider Preview Builds. I didn't know that getting the builds directly online could solve the issue, I'll definitely try that. Thanks!
Angelina2552 Seems I may have caused some confusion. Windows builds should still come from WU. The device drivers (network card, etc.) should come from the device manufacturer's website.

- My apologies. That makes more sense. I already get all driver updates from the manufacturer. I'll double check and see if any require any additional updates.
