I have update all the drivers and window and still crashing with blue screen. That sucks... No in home service? Able to run laptops self diagnostics. For Dell I'd press F12 on boot. Then run diagnostics for CPU, RAM, battery etc. Don't have an Acer but I think there's a similar option either F2 or F12. Might be hardware issue and the diagnostic can help detect issues. Service center cannot help due to closure then leave customer hanging. This post has been edited by aaronpang: Jul 12 2021, 05:56 PM Attached thumbnail(s)

The DPC WATCHDOG VIOLATION error is caused by a hardware component, its driver, or a software program. To resolve this blue screen issue, make sure to check any of your data and power cables. You may also try to replace the iastor. sys driver, a solution confirmed by many users.
What Is DPC Watchdog Violation Error? DPC Watchdog Violation (error code: DPC_Watchdog_Violation) is a common issue in the Windows operating system. It's occurred due to some specific reasons, like unsupported SSD firmware, old SSD driver version, hardware incompatibility issues, or system files are corrupted.

Base on my experience, that BSOD most likely cause by the motherboard or SSD. You may check is there any new firmware for your SSD.

From the sound of it, TS doesn't install any SSD or New RAM, everything factory setting. Even the RAM seem default... Next to check is if any USB items caused the issue. WHat have you use on USB? just Mouse? normal one? Besides this, i couldnt think of other. At the moment, yes do not do anything that could void warranty....

Have to wait until after MCO to send it to acer warranty center.
