DPC WATCHDOG VIOLATION when visiting ESPN.com via Explorer
I am getting the BSOD and DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION every time I visit the ESPN.com website via Explorer. It only occurs while visiting that specific site. I have an XPS 15 9530. Any thoughts? TIA!

Have you tried another browser on that site? And if you are using Windows 10, IE 11 can be a bit unpredictable at times which is why MS recommends using Edge instead. But try the suggestions in the following link.

Thanks for the information. Curiously, I tried to open ESPN.com via Chrome and the same thing happened: screen froze and the the BSOD and DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION notice. I have tried updating drivers and running Dell SupportAssist, but may reach out ESPN.

Same here. Started maybe over the weekend, lasted 2-3 days, stopped 2-3 days and now resumed this morning. Happens with Chrome and Firefox too.

I tried to find an email for ESPN.com without actually going to the website and risking another BSOD. I will just avoid the site for the time being. The app works fine on my iPhone.
