Bug Check 0x19C

I am getting a bug check on my Inspiron 14 7000.  It's been happening pretty much since new.  It's sporadic and happens mostly overnight.

Looking online my theory is it might be when windows update tries to do stuff in the night.  I think it's to do with having an HDMI monitor plugged in.  But that is all pure guesswork from me.  Dell support have "helped" me make sure that all drivers and the BIOS is up to date.  They have refused to look further.

Anyone got any hints or come across this?

Cheers

Replied to myself as I forgot to tick the "get an email" box!

Yes, that's what I tried.  It's not conclusive, but it seemed better.  It has also happened during the day, so unfortunately it's not a feasible workround.

Have you tried unplugging the external monitor overnight to see if the error continues? This web page has a number of suggestions that may help.
